State

This capstone carries one coordination complex through a full analysis — systematic name, possible isomers, predicted spin state, and the structural reason for its color — showing these four questions all trace back to the same ligand set and metal oxidation state.

Watch for

Assuming every iron(III) complex is low-spin because this one is skips the actual dependency — swapping cyanide for a weak-field ligand like fluoride around the same iron(III) center would predict a high-spin complex instead, per Chem 2406.
