    For an octahedral complex, which of the following d-electron configurations will give maximum CFSE?

    A) \[{{d}^{6}}\](High spin)  

    B) \[{{d}^{5}}\](Low spin)

    C) \[{{d}^{4}}\](Low spin)   

    D) \[{{d}^{7}}\](High spin)

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b]:\[{{d}^{6}}\](High spin);\[t_{2g}^{4}e_{g}^{2}\] \[CFSE=(-0.4\times 4+0.6\times 2){{\Delta }_{0}}=-0.4{{\Delta }_{0}}\] [b] \[{{d}^{5}}\] (Low spin);\[t_{2g}^{5}\] \[CFSE=(-0.4\times 5+0.6\times 0){{\Delta }_{0}}=-2.0{{\Delta }_{0}}\] [c] \[{{d}^{4}}\](Low spin); \[t_{2g}^{4}\] \[CFSE=(-0.4\times 4+0.6\times 0){{\Delta }_{0}}=-1.6{{\Delta }_{0}}\] [d] \[{{d}^{7}}\](High spin);\[t_{2g}^{5}e_{g}^{2}\] \[CFSE=(-0.4\times 5+0.6\times 2){{\Delta }_{0}}=-0.8{{\Delta }_{0}}\] Magnitude of CFSE is maximum for \[{{d}^{5}}\](low spin complex)
