Which octahedral ions are both paramagnetic and capable of using two vacant inner 3d orbitals in the elementary VBT model?
Options:(select one or more)
Answer:
A, B
Solution:
V(III) is d² and Cr(III) d³; both retain at least two vacant 3d orbitals and are paramagnetic. High-spin d⁵ has no vacant 3d orbitals. Paired d⁶ cyanidoferrate has two vacant 3d orbitals but is diamagnetic.
