Options:
  • A 5.92 BM and Δ0
  • B 1.73 BM and –2.0 Δ0
  • C 2.84 BM and –1.6 Δ0
  • D 0 BM and –2.4 Δ0

The correct answer is: 1.73 BM and –2.0 Δ0
No of G.I in [PdClFBrI]2 is 3.
Hence n=3
So [Fe(CN)6]n6=[Fe(CN)6]3
Fe3+=3d54s0
As CN- is a strong field ligand. So, according to crystal field theory the configuration is as follows
Fe 3+ = t 2g 2,2,1 , e g 0,0

n=1
Magnetic moment =n(n+2)=1(1+2)=3=1.73 B.M.
CFSE =-0.4Δ0×nt2g+0.6Δ0×neg
CFSE -0.4Δ0×5=-2.0Δ0
