Which of the following will be having maximum magnetic moment?
\(( Fe =26, Mn =25, Co =27)\)

  1. A \(\left[ Fe \left( H _2 O \right)_6\right] Cl _2\)
  2. B \(\left[ Mn \left( H _2 O \right)_4 Br _2\right] SO _4\)
  3. C \(Na _3\left[ FeCl _6\right]\)
  4. D \(\left[ Co \left( NH _3\right)_6\right] Cl _3\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(Na _3\left[ FeCl _6\right]\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Fe(II): \(3d^6\), \(H_2O\) (WFL) \(\Rightarrow\) n = 4 Mn(IV): \(3d^3\), \(H_2O, Br^-\) (WFL) \(\Rightarrow\) n = 3 Fe(III): \(3d^5\), \(Cl^-\) (WFL) \(\Rightarrow\) n = 5 Co(III): \(3d^6\), \(NH_3\) (SFL) \(\Rightarrow\) n = 0 Max n = 5 for \(Na _3\left[ FeCl _6\right]\)
