Amongst the following, the most stable complex is
Options
- A[ Fe ( H ₂ O )₆ ]³⁺
- B[ Fe ( NH ₃ )₆ ]³⁺
- C[ Fe ( C ₂ O ₄ )₃ ]³⁻
- D[ FeCl ₆ ]³⁻
Correct answer
C. [ Fe ( C ₂ O ₄ )₃ ]³⁻
Step-by-step solution
[ Fe ( C ₂ O ₄ )₃ ]³⁻ is the most stable complex due to chelate formation as C ₂ O ₄²⁻ is a bidentate chelating ligand.
