MCQ
Which of the following complexes has maximum $CFSE$?
  • $K _{3}\left[ Fe ( CN )_{6}\right]$
  • B
    $K _{3}\left[ Co ( Ox )_{3}\right]$
  • C
    $K _{3}\left[ CoF _{6}\right]$
  • D
    $K _{3}\left[ Co ( CN )_{6}\right]$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$K _{3}\left[ Fe ( CN )_{6}\right]$
a
In $\left[ Fe ( CN )_{6}\right], Fe ^{3+}, d^{5}$ is low spin and the value of $CFSE$ is

$-2.0 \Delta_{0}$

So, $K _{3}\left[ Fe ( CN )_{6}\right]$ has maximum $CFSE.$
