Question
The complex showing a spin-only magnetic moment of 2.82 B.M. is
Options
A.Ni(CO)4
B.[NiCl4]2-
C.Ni(PPh3)4
D.[Ni(CN)4]2-
Solution
[NiCl4]-2, O.S. of Ni = + 2
Ni(28) = 3d8 4s2
Ni+2 = 3d8
Cl- being weak ligand
No. of unpaired electrons = 2
Magnetic moment μ = 2.82 BM.
Ni(28) = 3d8 4s2
Ni+2 = 3d8
Cl- being weak ligand
No. of unpaired electrons = 2
Magnetic moment μ = 2.82 BM.
