NEETChemistryCoordination Compounds
Give the oxidation state, d orbital configuration and coordination number of the central metal ion in K 3 [Co(C 2 O 4 ) 3 ]
Options
- AOxidation state = +5, Coordination number=6 and d-orbital configuration=t 2g 5 e g 0
- BOxidation state = +2, Coordination number=4 and d-orbital configuration=t 2g 6 e g 0
- COxidation state = +3, Coordination number=6 and d-orbital configuration=t 2g 6 e g 0
- DOxidation state = +3, Coordination number=4 and d-orbital configuration=t 2g 5 e g 1
Correct answer
C. Oxidation state = +3, Coordination number=6 and d-orbital configuration=t 2g 6 e g 0
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (C) Oxidation state = +3, Coordination number=6 and d-orbital configuration=t 2g 6 e g 0
