Atomic number of Cr and Fe are respectively 24 and 26, which of the following is paramagnetic with the spin of electron?

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Odd electrons, ions and molecules are paramagnetic.
InCr(CO)6molecule 12 electrons are contributed by –CO group and it contains no odd electron
Cr→3d54s1
Fe(CO)5molecule also does not contain odd electron.
Fe→3d64s2
In[Fe(CN)6]4-ionFe+II→3d64s0
So, no odd electrons
In[Cr(NH3)6]3+ionCr(+III)→3d34s0
This iron contains odd electron so it is paramagnetic.
