Using CFSE (pairing energy ignored; weak field, on Co(III) low spin), which statements are correct?

  1. ACFSE of is .
  2. BCFSE of is .
  3. CCFSE of is .
  4. DCFSE of is .

Answer: A, C, D

Mn(II) high spin : gives . Co(III) low spin : gives , so statement 2 is false. Fe(II) high spin : gives . V(III) is : gives .
