Why is [NiCl4]2− paramagnetic while [Ni(CN)4]2− is diamagnetic? (Atomic number of Ni = 28)

उत्तर
The compound, [NiCl4]2−, is paramagnetic since it contains two unpaired electrons.

The compound, [Ni(CN)4]2−, is diamagnetic as evident from the absence of unpaired electron

For the complex [Fe(H2O)6]+3, write the hybridisation, magnetic character and spin of the complex. (At, number : Fe = 26)
Write the hybridization and magnetic behaviour of the complex [Ni(CO)4].
(At.no. of Ni = 28)
[NiCl4]2− is paramagnetic while [Ni(CO)4] is diamagnetic though both are tetrahedral. Why?
[Fe(H2O)6]3+ is strongly paramagnetic whereas [Fe(CN)6]3− is weakly paramagnetic. Explain.
Explain [Co(NH3)6]3+ is an inner orbital complex, whereas [Ni(NH3)6]2+ is an outer orbital complex.
[At. No.: Co = 27, Ni = 28]
Magnetic moment of \[\ce{[MnCl4]^{2-}}\] is 5.92 BM. Explain giving reason.
Explain why \[\ce{[Fe(H2O)6]^{3+}}\] has magnetic moment value of 5.92 BM whereas \[\ce{[Fe(CN)6]^{3-}}\] – has a value of only 1.74 BM.
Assertion: \[\ce{[Fe(CN)6]^{3-}}\] ion shows magnetic moment corresponding to two unpaired electrons.
Reason: Because it has d2sp3 type hybridisation.
Explain [Fe(CN)6]3− is an inner orbital complex, whereas [FeF6]3− is an outer orbital complex.
[Atomic number: Fe = 26]
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Ferromagnetism is considered as an extreme form of paramagnetism.
Statement II: The number of unpaired electrons in a Cr2+ ion (Z = 24) is the same as that of a Nd3+ ion (Z = 60).
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
