Specify the oxidation number of the metal in the following coordination entity: K3[Fe(CN)6]

Specify the oxidation number of the metal in the following coordination entity:

K₃[Fe(CN)₆]

Calculate the oxidation number of Fe in K₃[Fe(CN)₆].

अति संक्षिप्त उत्तर

Let the oxidation number of iron (Fe) be x.

Hence, 3 × (+1) + x + 6 × (−1) = 0

(+3) + x + (−6) = 0

3 + x − 6 = 0

x − 3 = 0

∴ x = +3
