Among ferrous and ferric ions, which one is more stable? Why? |
| Answer» Solution :Electroini configuration of Fe(26) `: [Ar] 4s^2 3d^6` Ferrous ION `Fe^(2+) : [Ar] 4s^0 3d^6` Ferric ion `Fe^(2+) : [Ar]4s^0 3d^6` Ferric ion ISMORE STABLE than ferrous ion. This is because ferric ion has HALF filled d-subshell stable electronic configuration . | |
