The spin-only magnetic moment of sodium nitroprusside ion is :
The spin-only magnetic moment of sodium nitroprusside ion is :
- A. 3.9 BM
- B. 5.9 Вм
- C. О ВМ
- D. 1.8 BM
Step-by-step solution
Sodium nitroprusside ion, [Fe(CN)5NO]2−, contains Fe(II) with d6 configuration. Cyanide and nitrosyl (as NO+) are strong field ligands, causing low-spin pairing: t2g6, all electrons paired. Thus, spin-only magnetic moment is 0 BM.
