Experiments can measure not only whether a compound is paramagnetic, but also the number of unpaired electrons. It is found that the octahedral complex ion [Fe(CN),]³- has fewer unpaired electrons than the octahedral complex ion [Fe(OH,),J³*. How many unpaired electrons are pre- sent in each species? Explain. In each case, express the CFSE in terms of A..
