How many of the following are paramagnetic inner-orbital complexes? [Cr(NH₃)₆]³⁺, [Fe(CN)₆]³⁻, [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺, [Ni(NH₃)₆]²⁺, [Mn(CN)₆]⁴⁻, [Fe(H₂O)₆]²⁺, [V(H₂O)₆]³⁺

Answer:
4
Solution:

Inner-orbital (d²sp³) and paramagnetic: [Cr(NH₃)₆]³⁺ (3), [Fe(CN)₆]³⁻ (1), [Mn(CN)₆]⁴⁻ (1) and [V(H₂O)₆]³⁺ (2). [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ is diamagnetic, and [Ni(NH₃)₆]²⁺ and [Fe(H₂O)₆]²⁺ are outer-orbital. Count = 4.
