PdFClBrI2- has n number of geometrical isomers. Then, the spin-only magnetic moment and crystal field stabilization energy CFSE of FeCN6n-6 , respectively, are:
[Note: Ignore the pairing energy]
  1. 2.84 BM and -160
  2. 5.92 BM and 0
  3. 1.73 BM and -2.00
  4. 0 BM and -2.40

Solution

Number of Geometrical Isomers in square planar PdFClBr2- are =3
Hence, n=3

FeCN63-
Fe3+=3d5, According to CFT, configuration is t2g221eg00; it means number of unpaired electron (n)=1

So spin-only magnetic moment
μ=nn+2=1.73 BM


CFSE=0.4Δ0×nt2g+0.6Δ0×neg =-0.40×5=-2.00
