Hybridisation, shape and magnetic moment of K 3 [ C o C O 3 3 ] is
Hybridisation, shape and magnetic moment of is
Solution
In cobalt shows the +3 oxidation state i.e., ion. Hence, Co (+3) has four unpaired electrons so, it is paramagnetic.
The magnetic moment of Co(+3)
In
BM=4.9 BM
Where, n=number of unpaired electrons
is a weak field bidentate ligand, so ligands occupy six orbitals, thus it shows hybridisation and octahedral in shape.
