JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2021 - 27th July Evening Shift - No. 5)

Given below are two statements :

Statement I : $${[Mn{(CN)_6}]^{3 - }}$$, $${[Fe{(CN)_6}]^{3 - }}$$ and $${[Co{({C_2}{O_4})_3}]^{3 - }}$$ are d2sp3 hybridised.

Statement II : $${[MnCl)_6}{]^{3 - }}$$ and $${[Fe{F_6}]^{3 - }}$$ are paramagnetic and have 4 and 5 unpaired electrons, respectively.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
Statement I is correct but statement II is false
Both statement I and Statement II are false
Statement I is incorrect but statement II is true
Both statement I and statement II are true

Explanation

Hybridization of all the given complexes are given in following table.

$${[Mn{(CN)_6}]^{3 - }} \Rightarrow M{n^{3 + }}$$

CN$$-$$ is a strong field ligand.

$$\therefore$$ Pairing of electron takes place.

$${[Fe{(CN)_6}]^{3 - }} \Rightarrow F{e^{3 + }}$$

CN$$-$$ is a strong ligand.

$$\therefore$$ Pairing of electron takes place.

$${[Co{({C_2}{O_4})_3}]^{3 - }} \Rightarrow C{o^{3 + }}$$

$${C_2}O_4^{2 - }$$ acts as strong field ligand with Co3+.

$$\therefore$$ Pairing of electrons takes place.

$${[Fe{F_6}]^{3 - }} \Rightarrow F{e^{3 + }}$$

F is a weak field ligand.

$$\therefore$$ Pairing of electron does not occurs.

$${[MnC{l_6}]^{3 - }} \Rightarrow M{n^{3 + }}$$

Cl$$-$$ is a weak field ligand.

$$\therefore$$ Pairing of electron does not occurs.

$${[Fe{F_6}]^{3 - }}$$ have 5 unpaired electrons and $${[MnC{l_6}]^{3 - }}$$ have 4 unpaired electrons.

So, both statement I and statement II are true.
