Question
[Fe(en)2(H2O)2]2+ + en → complex(X). The correct statement about the complex (X) is :
Options
A.it is a low spin complex.
B.it is diamagnetic.
C.it shows geometrical isomerism.
D.(A) and (B) both.
Solution
[Fe(en)2(H2O)2]2+ + en → [Fe(en)3]2+ + 2H2O
Complex is [Fe(en)3]2+. ′en′ is a strong field ligand and thus it is inner orbital complex (d2 sp3) and diamagnetic.
It is M(AA)3 type which has only one form.
