Which of the following complex ion is not expected to absorb visible light?
As we learnt in
Magnetic Moments (spin only) -
where n= number of unpaired electron.
- wherein
Number of unpaired and corresponding magnetic moments
To absorb visible light, the complex ion must leave a central atom with impaired
Electronic config of
In a complex with living the strong field ligand will pair up 3d electrons of and the complex will undergo d hybridization.
Electronic config of in
Because of an absence of unpaired will not absorb visible light.
