Which of the following complex compounds will exhibit highest paramagnetic behaviour?

  1. [Ti(NH₃)₆]³⁺
  2. [Cr(NH₃)₆]³⁺
  3. [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺
  4. [Zn(NH₃)₆]²⁺

Correct answer: [Cr(NH₃)₆]³⁺

Solution

Paramagnetic behavior depends on the number of unpaired electrons. [Cr(NH₃)₆]³⁺ has a d³ configuration with three unpaired electrons, making it the most paramagnetic among the options.
