Match the Coordination compounds given in Column I with their characteristic features listed in Column II. S.No. Coordination compounds S.No. Characteristic features W [Co(NH₃)₅Cl]Cl₂ P Oxidation state = +3 , Configuration = d^5 , = 5.92 BM X K₄[Mn(CN)₆] Q Oxidation state = +3 , Configuration = d^3 , = 3.87 BM Y [CrCl₂(py)₃] R Oxidation state = +3 , Configuration = d^6 , = 0 BM Z Cs[FeCl₄] S Oxidation state = +2 , Co

Options

  1. AW = S X = R Y = Q Z = P
  2. BW = S X = P Y = Q Z = R
  3. CW = R X = S Y = P Z = Q
  4. DW = R X = S Y = Q Z = P

Correct answer

D. W = R X = S Y = Q Z = P

Step-by-step solution

For W: [ Co ( NH ₃)₅ Cl ] Cl ₂ : Co is in +3 oxidation state. Co³⁺ is d^6 . With strong field ligands like NH ₃ , it forms a low spin complex with = 0 BM. This corresponds to R. For X: K ₄ [ Mn ( CN )₆ ] . Mn is in +2 oxidation state. Mn²⁺ is d^5 . CN ⁻ is a strong field ligand, causing pairing, resulting in one unpaired electron ( t_ 2g ^5 e_g^0 ). = 1(1+2) = 1.732 BM. This corresponds to S. For Y: [ CrCl ₃( py )₃ ] . Cr is in +3 oxidation state. Cr³⁺ is d^3 . In octahedral geometry, t_ 2g ^3 e_g^0 , three unpaire
