Question

Write down the IUPAC name of the following complex and indicate the oxidation state, electronic configuration and coordination number. Also, give the stereochemistry and magnetic moment of the complex:

[CrCl3(py)3]

Answer in Brief

Solution

IUPAC name of the hybrid compound Oxidation state of the central metal Coordination number Shape Central metal ion Electronic configuration The value of n and the magnetic moment
Trichloridotripyridinechromium(III) x + 5 × (0) + 3 × (−1) = 0
∴ x = +3
6 Octahedral Co3+ d3, \[\ce{t^3_{2g}}\]

`sqrt(3(3 + 2))`
= `sqrt15`
∼ 4BM

Stereochemistry:

Both isomers are optically active. Therefore, a total of 4 isomers exist.
