Answer:
One: <u>Selenium</u> is Paramagnetic
Explanation:
Those compounds which have unpaired electrons are attracted towards magnet. This property is called as paramagnetism. Lets see why remaining are not paramagnetic.
Electronic configuration of Scandium;
Sc = 21 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹
Sc³⁺ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶
Hence in Sc³⁺ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of Bromine;
Br = 35 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁵
Br⁻ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶
Hence in Br⁻ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of Magnesium;
Mg = 12 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²
Mg²⁺ = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶
Hence in Mg²⁺ there is no unpaired electron.
Electronic configuration of selenium;
Se = 34 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁴
Or,
Se = 34 = 1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4px², 4py¹, 4pz¹
Hence in Se there are two unpaired electrons hence it is paramagnetic in nature.
Answer:
Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰5(sp³d³)₆⁺² => Octahedral Geometry (AX₆)⁺²
Explanation:
Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰(5s²5p₋₁²p₀²p₁²5d₋₂d₋₁d₀)⁺² => Xe[Kr]5(sp³d³)₆²
Ca. #Valence e⁻ = Xe + 6F - 2e⁻ = 1(8) + 6(7) - 2 = 48
Ca. #Substrate e⁻ = 6F = 6(8) = 48
#Nonbonded free pairs e⁻ = (V - S)/2 = (48 - 48)/2 = 0 free pairs
#Bonded pairs e⁻ = 6F substrates = 6 bonded pairs
BPr + NBPr = 6 + 0 = 6 e⁻ pairs => Geometry => [AX₆]⁺² => Octahedron
Xe:[Kr]4d¹⁰(5s²5p₋₁²p₀²p₁²5d₋₂d₋₁d₀)⁺² => Xe[Kr]5(sp³d³)₆⁺²
XeF₆⁺² => 6(sp³d³) hybrid orbitals => Octahedral Geometry (AX₆)
