The number of isoelectronic species among Sc^ 3+ , Cr^ 2+ , Mn^ 3+...
The number of isoelectronic species among and is ' . If ' moles of AgCl is formed during the reaction of complex with formula with excess of solution, then the number of electrons present in the orbital of the complex is .
Correct answer
6
Step-by-step solution
For the complex CoCl₃(en)₂NH₃, cobalt is in +3 oxidation state with electron configuration [Ar]3d⁶.
In an octahedral field with strong field ligands (ethylenediamine, ammonia, chloride), Co³⁺ forms a low-spin complex with configuration.
The orbitals consist of , , and .
With all 6 electrons filling the three orbitals, the total number of electrons in the orbital set is 6.
