To find - Identify what kind of ligand (weak or strong), what kind

              of wavelength (long or short), what kind of spin (high spin or

              low spin) and whether it is paramagnetic or diamagnetic for

              the following complexes.

              1. [Mn(CN)6]4-

              2. [Fe(OH)(H2O)5]2

              3. [CrCl4Br2]3-

Step - by - Step Explanation -

1.

[Mn(CN)⁶]⁴⁻ :

Ligand - Strong

Wavelength - Short

Spin - Low spin

Number of unpaired electrons = 1 ∴ paramagnetic.

2.

[Fe(OH)(H₂O)₅]²⁺ :

Ligand - Weak ( both OH⁻ and H₂O )

Wavelength - Long

Spin - High spin

Number of unpaired electrons = 5 ∴ paramagnetic.

3.

[CrCl₄Br₂]³⁻ :

Ligand - Weak ( both Br⁻ and Cl⁻ )

Wavelength - Long

Spin - High spin

Number of unpaired electrons = 3 ∴ paramagnetic.
