QJEEM22Che739: JEE Main 2022 Chemistry - Class 12 JEEM22Che739 Solution: Spin only magnetic moment ( s ) of is ____________ B.M.…

Spin only magnetic moment ( μ\mu s) of K3[Fe(CN)6]{K_3}[Fe{(CN)_6}] is ____________ B.M.

(Nearest integer)

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

K3[Fe(CN)6]\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]

CN−\mathrm{CN}^{-} have −1-1 oxidation State.

Let oxidation state of Fe\mathrm{Fe} in the complex is xx .

So, x−6=−3⇒x=+3x-6=-3 \Rightarrow x=+3

Now, CN−\mathrm{CN}^{-} ion is a strong field ligand.

Unpaired electron =1=1

μB=n(n+2)=1×(1+2)=1.7\mu_{\mathrm{B}}=\sqrt{n(n+2)}=\sqrt{1 \times(1+2)}=1.7

μB=2\mu_{\mathrm{B}}=2 B.M
