Which of the following is not an outer orbital complex ?A. `[MnCI_(6)]^(3-)`B. `[Fe(CN)_(6)]`C. `[FeF_(6)]^(3-)`D. `[CoF_(6)]^(3-)` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B In the formation of an outer orbital complex, the outer d orbital (4d) is used in hybridization. `[MnC1_(6)]^(3-)` , `[FeF_(6)]^(3-)` and `[CoF_(6)]^(3-)` are outer orbital complexes involving `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridization and are paramagnetic corresponding to four, five and four unpaired electrons. `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)` is an inner orbital complex with `d^(2) sp^(3)` hybrization. |
