In potassium ferrocyanide, there are ______ pairs of electrons in the t2g{t}_{2g} set of orbitals.In potassium ferrocyanide, there are ______ pairs of electrons in the t _ 2g set of orbitals.

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Potassium ferrocyanide, K4[Fe(CN)6]{K}_{4}\left[Fe{\left(CN\right)}_{6}\right], has a central iron ion that is coordinated with six cyanide ligands in an octahedral geometry. The oxidation state of the iron ion in potassium ferrocyanide is +2+ 2, hence has d2sp3{d}^{2}{sp}^{3} hybridised state. On applying C.F.TC . F . T. it shows that all the 66 electrons of dd subshell are present in the form of three pairs in t2g{t}_{2g} orbitals. Hence answer is 33.

In potassium ferrocyanide, there are ______ pairs of electrons in the t _ 2g set of orbitals.
