[Co ( NH _ 3 ) _ 6 ] ^ 3 + and [ CoF _ 6 ] ^ 3 - are respectively...
and are respectively known as:
Options
- ASpin free Complex, Spin paired Complex
- BSpin paired Complex, Spin free Complex
- COuter orbital Complex, Inner orbital Complex
- DInner orbital Complex, Spin paired Complex
Correct answer
B. Spin paired Complex, Spin free Complex
Step-by-step solution
In the complex Ammonia is strong field ligand and electronic configuration of
Hybridisation:
Pairing of electrons takes place due to the strong field ligand. Hence, it is inner orbital complex (spin paired complex).
In the complex fluoride is weak field ligand and electronic configuration of .
Hybridisation:
Pairing of electrons not takes place due to the weak field ligand. Hence, it is outer orbital complex (spin free complex).
Hence option B is the answer.
