1. The following coordination complexes are given to you:
[FeCl4]2-, [Cu(H2O)6]2+, [Fe(CN)6]4-, [FeCl4]2-, [Co(NH3)6]3+.
Based on these complexes, use the spectrochemical series to:
(a) determine the configuration (in the form of π‘π₯ ππ¦ or ππ₯π‘π¦,
as appropriate) 2ππ ππ 2 (10 marks)
(b) identify the number of unpaired electrons and magnetic
properties of the complexes (5 marks)
(c) compute the ligand-field stabilization energy (LFSE) in Ξo.
(5 marks)
