Question:

Which of the following complexes are diamagnetic?

[Mn(CN)6]4- , [Zn(NH3)4]2+, [Fe(CN)6]4-, [FeF6]3-

Options:

[Zn(NH3)4]2+

[Zn(NH3)4]2+ and [FeF6]3-

[Zn(NH3)4]2+ and [Fe(CN)6]4-

[Mn(CN)6]4- , [Zn(NH3)4]2+, [Fe(CN)6]4-

Correct Answer:

[Zn(NH3)4]2+ and [Fe(CN)6]4-

Explanation:

[Zn(NH3)4]2+ and [Fe(CN)6]4- 

These are diamagnetic because as both of them have all electrons paired in d orbital.
