Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) (C) and (D) only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) \(\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_5 \mathrm{NO}\right]^{-2} \rightarrow\) Heteroleptic, \(\mathrm{Fe}^{+2}, 3 \mathrm{~d}^6\), \(\mathrm{t}_{2 \mathrm{~g}}{ }^6 \mathrm{e}_{\mathrm{g}}{ }^0, \mathrm{~d}^2 \mathrm{sp}^3\), Low spin ( 3 d series +SFL ) (B)…
