Estimate the spin-only contribution to the magnetic moment for each complex in Exercise 20.1. Data from Exercises

Question:

Estimate the spin-only contribution to the magnetic moment for each complex in Exercise 20.1.


Data from Exercises 20.1

Determine the configuration (in the form t2gx egy or ext2y , as appropriate), the number of unpaired electrons, and the ligandfield stabilization energy in terms of ΔO or ΔT and P for each of the following complexes. Use the spectrochemical series to decide, where relevant, which are likely to be high-spin and which low-spin.

[Co(NH3)6]3+

[Fe(OH2)6]2+

[Fe(CN)6]3−

[Cr(NH3)6]3+,

[W(CO)6], 

Tetrahedral [FeCl4]2−

Tetrahedral [NiCl4]2−.
