Expert Answer:
The structure of ferrocyanide ion is
Structure of ferrocyanide ion:
Fe (II) attached with six cyanide ions gives octahedral geometry.
Formation of Ferrocyanide ion. [Fe(CN)6]4-
Here Fe has +2 oxidation state, hence
The resulting complex ion is octahedral and diamagnetic as it does not contain any unpaired electron.
In the cyanide ion, the carbon is bonded with nitrogen by the triple covalent bond.
And six cyanide ions are coordinately bonded with Fe (II) ion to give the complex ion [Fe(CN)6]4-

- What is the oxidation number of Ni in Ni(CO)4 ?
- What is synergic effect
- The magnetic moment for two complexes of empirical formula Ni(NH3)4 (NO3)2.2H2O is zero and 2.84 BM repectively. The second complex is not a neutral complex. The correct formula and geometry of the first complex is : (1) [Ni(H2O)2(NO3)2].4NO3 = Tetrahedral (2) [Ni(NH3)4] (NO3)2.2H2O = Tetrahedral (3) [Ni(NH3)4](NO3)2.2H2O = Square planar (4) [Ni(NH3)4(H2O)2](NO3)2 = Octahedral
