Question
Ferrous sulfate on reaction with potassium hexacyanochromate(III) produces a brick red complex. The number of unpaired electrons on Fe in the red complex is _________.
Explanation
Mechanistically, molecular bonding involves hybridization and orbital overlap dictate geometry and reactivity. This validates Option NAT because it satisfies bonding and stability criteria, a pattern repeatedly demonstrated in chemistry research.
