Q. Assertion : $ [Fe(H_{2}O )_{ 6}]^{2+}$ is $sp^{3}d^{2}$ hybridised and paramagnetic complex ion.
Reason : $[Fe(H_{2}O)_{6}]^{2+}$ has four unpaired electrons as $H_{2}O$ is a weak field ligand.

Coordination Compounds

Solution:

Due to presence of unpaired electrons, it is paramagnetic in nature
