MCQ
Which of these statements about $[Co(CN)_6]^{3-}$ is true?
  • A
    $[Co(CN)_6]^{3-}$ has four unpaired electrons and will be in a high-spin configuration.
  • B
    $[Co(CN)_6]^{3-}$ has no unpaired electrons and will be in a high-spin configuration.
  • ✓
    $[Co(CN)_6]^{3-}$ has no unpaired electrons and will be in a low-spin configuration.
  • D
    $[Co(CN)_6]^{3-}$ has four unpaired electrons and will be in a low-spin configuration.
✓

Answer

Correct option: C.
$[Co(CN)_6]^{3-}$ has no unpaired electrons and will be in a low-spin configuration.
c
$\left[\mathrm{Co}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{-3}$

$\mathrm{Co}^{+3}=3 \mathrm{d}^{6} 4 \mathrm{s}^{0} 4 \mathrm{p}^{0}$

$\because$ in presence of strong field ligand, pairing of electrons occurs so in this complex no unpaired electron is present and

it is low spin complex.
