hello friend Fe3+ion is more stable D2H half-filled 3 D 5 electron configuration as half filled and completely filled cells are more stable AC 3+ion is more stable.. while Fe2+ is not stable

Hey bro!!!

▶Here is ur answer ⬇⬇⬇

➡ Your question is very much appreciable.

The underlying principle involved in this is "Half-filled and Fully-filled orbitals are extra stable”.

The d subshell has five orbitals, which can accommodate a maximum of 10 electrons.Fe+3 (3d5) has half filled orbitals which provide extra stability to it because of symmetrical configuration. While Fe+2(3d6) has one electron more than the symmetrical arrangement. That’s why Fe+3 is more stable than Fe+2.

 

Hope, this answers your question.

Best wishes!
