The correct statement(s) regarding the binary transition metal...

The correct statement(s) regarding the binary transition metal carbonyl compounds is (are) (Atomic numbers: Fe=26,Ni=28Fe = 26, Ni = 28 )

Options

  1. ATotal number of valence shell electrons at metal center in Fe( CO )Fe{\left(\text{ CO }\right)}_{5}orNi{\left(CO\right)}_{4} is 16
  2. BThese are predominantly low spin in nature
  3. CMetal - carbon bond strengthens when the oxidation state of the metal is lowered
  4. DThe carbonyl C−OC - O bond weakens when the oxidation state of the metal is increased

Correct answer

B. These are predominantly low spin in nature

Step-by-step solution

( A )[Fe(CO5)]and(Ni(CO)4)\left[Fe\left(C{O}_{5}\right)\right]and\left(Ni{\left(CO\right)}_{4}\right) Complexes have 18- electrons in their valence shell
(B)( B ) Carbonyl complexes are predominantly low spin complexes due to strong ligand field
(C)( C ) As electron density increases on metals (with lowering oxidation state on metals), the extent of synergic bonding increases. Hence M - C bond strength increases
(D)( D ) While positive charge on metals increases and the extent of synergic bond decreases and hence C - O bond becomes stronger.
