The magnetic moment of an octahedral homoleptic Mn(II) complex is 5.9 BM. The suitable ligand for this complex is : (1) NCS– (2) CN– (3) ethylenediamine (4) CO

Answer»

Correct option: (1) NCS

Explanation:

µ = 5.9 BM → 5 unpaired e 

Mn2+ –[Ar]3d5 configuration only possible with relatively weaker ligand. 

So NCS is the answer (1).
