Question
Identify the metal and justify your answer.
- Carbonyl M (CO)5
- MO3F
EAN = x + 2 × 5 = 36 (Kr is the nearest inert gas)
x = 26 (atomic no. of the metal) so the metal is iron.
In MO3F let us assume M = x
x + 3 × (-2) + (-1)
x = +7
M is in + 7 osidation state so that the given compound is MnO3F
