Co NH 3 6 3 + and CoF 6 3 - are respectively known as:

Options

  1. ASpin free Complex, Spin paired Complex
  2. BSpin paired Complex, Spin free Complex
  3. COuter orbital Complex, Inner orbital Complex
  4. DInner orbital Complex, Spin paired Complex

Correct answer

B. Spin paired Complex, Spin free Complex

Step-by-step solution

In the complex Co NH 3 6 3 + Ammonia is strong field ligand and electronic configuration of Co 3 + ⇒ 3 d 6 t 2 g 6 , e g 0 Hybridisation: d 2 sp 3 Pairing of electrons takes place due to the strong field ligand. Hence, it is inner orbital complex (spin paired complex). In the complex CoF 6 3 - fluoride is weak field ligand and electronic configuration of Co 3 + ⇒ 3 d 6 t 2 g 4 , e g 2 . Hybridisation: sp 3 d 2 Pairing of electrons not takes place due to the weak field ligand. Hence, it is outer orbital complex (spi
