and surrounded by
weak field ligands can be:
A
B.M. and
B
B.M.
C
B.M.
D
Both
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
An octahedral complexes having CFSE 
must have two unpaired 
. According to
given weak field ligand condition, pairing of electron is not possible. Therefore, two type of electronic configuration is possible-
For 
Total number of unpaired 
Magnetic moment 
For 
Total number of unpaired
