Which of the following statements is incorrect?

  1. A In \(\mathrm{K}_{4}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]\) the ligand has satisfied both primary and secondary valencies of ferrous ion.
  2. B In \(\left[\mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{4}\right] \mathrm{SO}_{4}\), the ligand has satisfied only the secondary valency of copper.
  3. C In \(\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]\), the ligand has satisfied only the secondary valency of ferric ion.
  4. D In \(\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]\), the ligand has satisfied both primary and secondary valencies of ferric ion.

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) In \(\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]\), the ligand has satisfied both primary and secondary valencies of ferric ion.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

In \(\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]\), the ligand has satisfied both primary and secondary valencies of ferric ion. The \(+3\) charge of ferric ion is satisfied by negative charge on cyanide ion. The coordination sphere's secondary valency is satisfied…
