Among the following complexes the one which shows zero crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) is

  1. [Mn(H2O)6]3+
  2. [Fe(H2O)6]3+
  3. [Co(H2O)6]2+
  4. [Co(H2O)6]3+

Answer

(2) [Fe(H2O)6]3+

Solution

H2O is a weak field ligand ⇒ high-spin octahedral complexes; CFSE = (-0.4x + 0.6y) o for t2gx egy.

Mn3+ (3d4): t2g3 eg1 ⇒ CFSE = -0.6 o

Fe3+ (3d5): t2g3 eg2 ⇒ CFSE = -1.2 o + 1.2 o = 0

Co2+ (3d7): t2g5 eg2 ⇒ CFSE = -0.8 o

Co3+ (3d6): CFSE 0 (high or low spin)

∴ [Fe(H2O)6]3+ (high-spin d5) has zero CFSE.
