Question

Which is low spin complex?

  • \[\ce{Co(NO2)^{3-}_6}\]

  • \[\ce{Mn(CN)^{3-}_6}\]

  • All of these

Solution

All of these.

Explanation:

Fe(26)
  3d 4s
Fe+2  

CN- is strong field ligand, it pair the electron and form a low spin complex.

Co(27)    
  3d 4s
Co+3
  3d 4s

`"NO"_2^-` is able to cause the pair pairing of electrons, so a low spin complex will form.

Mn(25)
  3d 4s
Mn+3    
  3d 4s

CN- strong field ligand, causes the pairing of electron.
