Time management is very much important in IIT JAM. The eduncle test series for IIT JAM Mathematical Statistics helped me a lot in this portion. I am very thankful to the test series I bought from eduncle.

it is Inner orbital complex
how?
it is d2sp3.In exited state one of the 3d electrons of Co2+ (3d7) transfers into 5s orbital and the other 6 electrons of 3d orbital pair and remain in 3, 3d orbitals.dx^2-y^2 & dz^2 remain empty.Then 2 inner 3d, one outer 4s & 3 outer 4p hybridize to form 6 equivalent d2sp3 hybrid orbital.Then 6 NH3 gives 6 electron pairs & create 6 coordinate bonds to form octahedral [Co(NH3)6]^2+ ion.It shows paramagnetic property as it has a unpaired electron in 5s orbital
sir how can i know in which complex the electron excite into 5s orbital and in which case it doesnt excite?
this is an rare example
it's proof is that it's oxidation potential is very high i.e it can easily lose its eletron
Co² = Co³+ +e due to Eletron in 5s
tq sir😇😇
