Question
Explain [Fe(CN)6]3− is an inner orbital complex, whereas [FeF6]3− is an outer orbital complex.
[Atomic number: Fe = 26]
Solution
[Fe(CN)6]3−
Fe = 3 oxidation state
i.e., electronic configuration = 3d5
CNΘ = strong field ligand
i.e., Δ0 > P pairing will take place
Electronic configuration of Fe3+ = 3d5
[FeF6]3−
Fe = +3 oxidation state
F− = Weak field ligand Δ0 < P `->` Pairing will not take place.

Magnetic moment of \[\ce{[MnCl4]^{2-}}\] is 5.92 BM. Explain giving reason.
Why do compounds having similar geometry have different magnetic moment?
Assertion: \[\ce{[Fe(CN)6]^{3-}}\] ion shows magnetic moment corresponding to two unpaired electrons.
Reason: Because it has d2sp3 type hybridisation.
