Answer:
CN^- is a strong field ligand
Explanation:
The complex, hexacyanoferrate II is an Fe^2+ specie. Fe^2+ is a d^6 specie. It may exist as high spin (paramagnetic) or low spin (diamagnetic) depending on the ligand. The energy of the d-orbitals become nondegenerate upon approach of a ligand. The extent of separation of the two orbitals and the energy between them is defined as the magnitude of crystal field splitting (∆o).
Ligands that cause a large crystal field splitting such as CN^- are called strong field ligands. They lead to the formation of diamagnetic species. Strong field ligands occur towards the end of the spectrochemical series of ligands.
Hence the complex, Fe(CN)6 4− is diamagnetic because the cyanide ion is a strong field ligand that causes the six d-electrons present to pair up in a low spin arrangement.
Answer:
It is important to analyze data to further understand what's going on. By analyzing data, you know more about what you are investigating. Without analyzing data, you may find it harder to figure something.
Copper has 29 electrons, and its electron configuration is:
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s1.
Therefore, copper has 1 valence electron.
Hope this helps~
Most atoms have three different subatomic particles inside them: protons, neutrons, and electrons. The protons and neutrons are packed together into the center of the atom(which is called the nucleus) and the electrons, which are very much smaller, whizz around the outside. Most of an atom is empty space.
I hope this helps you! :D
