Answers
GPT-4o mini
Potassium hexacyanoferrate(II) is often represented by the formula \( K_2[Fe(CN)_6] \). In this complex, the iron (Fe) is in the +2 oxidation state and is coordinated to six cyanide (CN\(^-\)) ligands.
**Coordination Number:** 6
**Geometry:** Octahedral
This is typical for metal complexes with six ligands surrounding the central metal ion.
