Question 24

Write down the IUPAC name for each of the following complexes and indicate the oxidation state, electronic configuration and coordination number. Also give stereochemistry and magnetic moment of the complex:

(i) K[Cr(H2O)2(C2O4)2].3H2O

(ii) [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2

(iii) CrCl3(py)3

(iv) Cs[FeCl4]

(v) K4[Mn(CN)6]

Answer

(i) Potassium diaquadioxalatochromate (III) trihydrate.

Oxidation state of chromium = 3

Electronic configuration:  3d3 : t2g3

Coordination number = 6

Shape: octahedral

Stereochemistry:

 

 

(ii) [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2

IUPAC name: Pentaamminechloridocobalt(III) chloride

Oxidation state of Co = +3

Coordination number = 6

Shape: octahedral.

Electronic configuration: d6: t2g6.

Stereochemistry:

 

Magnetic Moment = 0

 

(iii) CrCl3(py)3

IUPAC name: Trichloridotripyridinechromium (III)

Oxidation state of chromium = +3

Electronic configuration for d3 = t2g3

Coordination number = 6

Shape: octahedral.

Stereochemistry:

Both isomers are optically active. Therefore, a total of 4 isomers exist.

 

(iv) Cs[FeCl4]

IUPAC name: Caesium tetrachloroferrate (III)

Oxidation state of Fe = +3

Electronic configuration of d6 = eg2t2g3

Coordination number = 4

Shape: tetrahedral

Stereochemistry: optically inactive

Magnetic moment:

 

(v) K4[Mn(CN)6]  

Potassium hexacyanomanganate(II)

Oxidation state of manganese = +2

Electronic configuration: d5+: t2g5

Coordination number = 6

Shape: octahedral.

Streochemistry: optically inactive
