-
Identify the complex in Fehling's reagent
Fehling's reagent contains a deep blue complex of with tartrate ions in alkaline medium.
So, the metal ion responsible for magnetism is:
-
Find the electronic configuration of
Atomic number of Cu = 29.
Neutral copper:
For , remove two electrons:
- one from
- one from
Therefore,
-
Count unpaired electrons
In , there is:
-
Use spin-only magnetic moment formula
Substituting :
-
Nearest integer
Therefore, the spin-only magnetic moment of the complex present in Fehling's reagent is 2 B.M. (nearest integer).
