Question
The pair in which both the species have the same magnetic moment (spin only) is : (A) [Cr(H2O)6]2+ and [Fe(H2O)6]2+ (B) [Co(OH)4]2– and [Fe(NH3)6]2+ (C) [Cr(H2O)6]2+ and [CoCl4]2– (D) [Mn(H2O)6]2+ and [Cr(H2O)6]2+
💡 Solution & Explanation
No. of unpaired e– [Cr(H2O)6]2+ Cr2+ 3d4 t2g1,1,1, eg1,0 [Fe(H2O)6]2+ Fe2+ 3d6 t2g2,1,1, eg1,1 [Fe(NH3)6]2+ Fe2+ 3d6 t2g2,1,1, eg1,1 [Co(OH)4]2– Co2+ 3d7 e2,2, t21,1,1 [CoCl4]2– Co2+ 3d7 e2,2, t21,1,1 [Mn(H2O)6]2+, Mn2+ 3d5 t2g1,1,1, eg1,1 So [Cr(H2O)6]2+ and [Fe(H2O)6]2+ have same magnetic moment (spin only) SECTION – 2 : (Maximum Marks : 20) This section contains FIVE (05) questions.
