Explain Crystal Field Theory. Using this theory, discuss why the [Fe(CN)6]3- complex is low-spin while [FeF6]3- is high-spin.
State Faraday’s First Law of Electrolysis. Calculate the mass of copper deposited on a cathode when a current of 5 A flows for 30 minutes through a solution of copper sulfate. (Atomic mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol, Faraday’s constant = 96500 C/mol).
