  • In [Mn(H2O)6​)2+, Mn is present as Mn2+ or Mn (II), so its electronic configuration =1s2,2s22p6,3s23p6,3d5
  • In [Mn(H2O)6​)2+ the coordination number of Mn is six, but in presence of weak field, ligand there will be no pairing of electrons in 3d.
  • So, it will form high spin complex due to presence of five unpaired electrons.
