Ligands

Which of the following complexes has the highest paramagnetic behaviour?

(where gly = glycine, en = ethylenediamine, ox = oxalate ion and bpy = bipyridyl moieties )
(At no : Ti= 22, V = 23, Fe = 26, Co = 27)

1. [V(gly)₂(OH)₂(NH₃)₂]⁺

2. [Fe(en)(bpy)(NH₃)₂]²⁺

3. [Co(ox)₂(OH)₂]^-

4. [Ti(NH₃)₆]³⁺

CFSE (in the octahedral field) will be maximum in:
(Atomic number Co = 27)

1. ${\left[\mathrm{Co}{\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\right)}_6\right]}^{3+}$

2. ${\left[\mathrm{Co}{\left({\mathrm{NH}}_3\right)}_6\right]}^{3+}$

3. ${\left[\mathrm{Co}{\left(\mathrm{CN}\right)}_6\right]}^{3-}$

4. ${\left[\mathrm{Co}{\left({\mathrm{C}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_4\right)}_3\right]}^{3-}$

The correct increasing order of trans-effect of the following species is:

1. ${\mathrm{NH}}_3>{\mathrm{CN}}^{-}>\mathrm{Br}>{\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_5^{-}$

2. ${\mathrm{CN}}^{-}>{\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_5^{-}>{\mathrm{Br}}^{-}>{\mathrm{NH}}_3$

3. ${\mathrm{Br}}^{-}>{\mathrm{CN}}^{-}>{\mathrm{NH}}_3>{\mathrm{C}}_6{{\mathrm{H}}^{-}}_5$

4. ${\mathrm{CN}}^{-}>{\mathrm{Br}}^{-}>{\mathrm{C}}_6{{\mathrm{H}}^{-}}_5>{\mathrm{NH}}_3$
