Answer:
Basically, paramagnetic and diamagnetic refer to the way a chemical species interacts with a magnetic field. More specifically, it refers to whether or not a chemical species has any unpaired electrons or not.
A diamagnetic species has no unpaired electrons, while a paramagnetic species has one or more unpaired electrons.
Now, I won't go into too much detail about crystal field theory in general, since I assume that you're familiar with it.
So, you're dealing with the hexafluorocobaltate(III) ion, [CoF6]3â’, and the hexacyanocobaltate(III) ion, [Co(CN)6]3â’.
You know that [CoF6]3â’ is paramagnetic and that [Co(CN)6]3â’ is diamagnetic, which means that you're going to have to determine why the former ion has unpaired electrons and the latter does not.
Both complex ions contain the cobalt(III) cation, Co3+, which has the following electron configuration
Co3+:1s22s22p63s23p63d6
For an isolated cobalt(III) cation, all these five 3d-orbitals are degenerate. The thing to remember now is that the position of the ligand on the spectrochemical series will determine how these d-orbtals will split.
More specifically, you can say that
a strong field ligand will produce a more significant splitting energy, Δ a weak field ligand will produce a less significant splitting energy, Δ
Now, the spectrochemical series looks like this

Notice that the cyanide ion, CNâ’, is higher on the spectrochemical series than the fluoride ion, Fâ’. This means that the cyanide ion ligands will cause a more significant energy gap between the eg and t2g orbitals when compared with the fluoride ion ligands.

In the case of the hexafluorocobaltate(III) ion, the splitting energy is smaller than the electron pairing energy, and so it is energetically favorable to promote two electrons from the t2g orbitals to the eg orbitals → a high spin complex will be formed.
This will ensure that the hexafluorocobaltate(III) ion will have unpaired electrons, and thus be paramagnetic.
On the other hand, in the case of the hexacyanocobaltate(III) ion, the splitting energy is higher than the electron pairing energy, and so it is energetically favorable to pair up those four electrons in the t2g orbitals → a low spin complex is formed.
Since it has no unpaired electrons, the hexacyanocobaltate(III) ion will be diamagnetic.
Answer:
Electrostatic
Explanation:
The forces that are overcome are the repulsive electrostatic forces between the protons (all charged positively).
Answer: Electrovalent bonds are produced when electrons are transferred from atoms of one element to atoms of another element, producing positive and negative ions. The bond which is formed by the transfer of electrons between the atoms is called electrovalent bond or ionic bond. Electrovalent bonds are only formed between metals and non-metals. Electrovalent bonds are not formed between two non-metals.
In simple words electrovalent bond involves the transference of a certain number of electrons to another dissimilar atom which has a tendency to gain electrons so that both acquire stable inert gas configurations. The electrostatic attraction always tends to decrease the potential energy. Hence, the potential energy of the system is much less than it was before the formation of an ionic bond.
Explanation: An Ionic bond is the bond formed by the complete transfer of valence electron to attain stability.
This type of bonding leads to the formation of two oppositely charged ions – positive ion known as cations and negative ions are known as anions.
The presence of two oppositely charged ions results in a strong attractive force between them. This force is an ionic or electrovalent bond.
Ionic bonds form between atoms with large differences in electronegativity, whereas covalent bonds formed between atoms with smaller differences in electronegativity.
The compound formed by the electrostatic attraction of positive and negative ions is called an ionic compound.
