Question

Which of the following statements is/are incorrect for the complex [Cr(H2O)6]Cl3?

Options

A.It has a magnetic moment of 3.83 BM.
B.The distribution of 3d electrons is 3dxy1, 3dyz1, 3dzx1
C.The ligand has satisfied both primary and secondary valencies of chromium.
D.It shows ionization as well as hydrate isomerism.

Solution

(A) The 3d3 electron configuration always have three unpaired electrons with weak field as well as strong field ligands.
(B) 3d3
(C) H2O being neutral molecule satisfies only secondary valencies.
(D) It shows hydrate isomerism and not ionisation isomerism because anionic ligand is not present in coordination sphere.
