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

The correct increasing order of stability of the complexes based on \(\Delta_{\mathrm{o}}\) value is _______.
I. \(\left[\mathrm{Mn}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]^{3-}\)
II. \(\left[\mathrm{Co}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]^{4-}\)
III. \(\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]^{4-}\)
IV. \(\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]^{3-}\)

  1. A \(\mathrm{IV} \lt \mathrm{III} \lt \mathrm{II} \lt \mathrm{I}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{I} \lt \mathrm{II} \lt \mathrm{IV} \lt \) III
  3. C III \( \lt \) II \( \lt \) IV \( \lt \) I
  4. D II \( \lt \) III \( \lt \) I \( \lt \) IV
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{I} \lt \mathrm{II} \lt \mathrm{IV} \lt \) III

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Neglecting pairing energy I. \([\mathrm{Mn}(\mathrm{CN}) \mathrm{B}]^{3-} \Rightarrow \mathrm{Mn}^{3+}, \mathrm{t}_2 \mathrm{~g}^4, \mathrm{CFSE}=-0.4 \times 4 \Delta \mathrm{o}\) \(=-1.6 \Delta\) 。 II.…
