Abstract
The prediction of ligand-field theory that for low-spin octahedral complexes the size should decrease along the series Cr(III), Mn(III), Fe(III), and Co(III) has been examined by comparing the lattice constants of the complex cyanides of formula K3MIII(CN)6; a steady decrease along the series provides substantial evidence that the prediction is correct.Keywords
