JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 5. Co-ordination chemistry

Given below are two statements: Statement \(I:\) \(\left[\mathrm{Mn}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-},\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}\) and \(\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{O}_{4}\right)_{3}\right]^{3-}\) are \(d^{2} \mathrm{sp}^{3}\) hybridised. Statement \(II:\) \(\left[\mathrm{MnCl}_{6}\right]^{3-}\) and \(\left[\mathrm{FeF}_{6}\right]^{3-}\) are paramagnetic and have \(4\) and \(5\) unpaired electrons, respectively. In the light of the above statements, choose the coorrect answer from the options given below :

  1. A Both statement \(I\) and statement \(II\) are false
  2. B Statement \(I\) is incorrect but statement \(II\) is true
  3. C Statement \(I\) is correct but statement \(II\) is false
  4. D Both statement \(I\) and statement \(II\) are true
