NEET Chemistry Magnetic Properties Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): [Fe(CN)₆]³⁻ ion shows magnetic moment corresponding to two unpaired electrons.
Reason (R): Because it has d²sp³ type hybridisation.
Assertion and reason both are true, reason is correct explanation of assertion.
Assertion and reason both are true, reason is not correct explanation of assertion.
Assertion is true but reason is false.
