Using the valence bond theory predict the geometry and magnetic behaviour of [CoF_(6)]^(3-). [At. no. of Co = 27] |
Answer» Solution :Configuration of `Co^(3+)`  Geometry : The pairing will not take place because F is a WEAK ligand `sp^(3)d^(2)` will give rise to OCTAHEDRAL shape. MAGNETIC behaviour : Due to the presence of 4 UNPAIRED electrons, the complex will be highly paramagnetic |
