Frequently Asked Question

Questions asked by users might not always be phrased in the clearest way.

There is a purple power with a formula of [co(ox)3]4-. Calculate the diamagnetic correction calculation for Ueff. There are 6 electrons in the d orbital. a spin of 1

Accepted Answer

The complex [Co(ox)3]4- has a cobalt(II) ion in a low-spin d6 configuration. In this case, all 6 d electrons are paired, leading to a diamagnetic complex. Since it is diamagnetic, the diamagnetic correction for Ueff is zero. This is because the diamagnetic correction accounts for the pairing energy, which is negligible in a diamagnetic complex.
