Colours again!

Colours in complexes are decided by the constituents of the coordination sphere, right? So why do K4[Fe(CN)6] and Fe2[Fe(CN)6] differ in colour though coordination sphere is intact?

Another doubt: In group test for Group IV cations, Ni3+ is precipitated as green coloured ppt of Ni(OH)2.

In another test involving Ni2+, it is precipitated as Ni(OH)2 again.............but this time as green coloured ppt. Pls explain [2]

*IGNORE OR YOU WILL FORGET CHEMISTRY

THANX FOR THE CORRECTION SRI......IN GROUP IV, CATIONS ARE PRECIPITATED AS SULPHIDES AND NOT HYDROXIDES......SORRY FOR DISTURBING YOU [2]

i think there is charge transfer between K+ and co-ordination sphere in the complex I which is lacking in complex II

wo ! wht a thread ! great work ani. let me add final twist to it.

there hs been a lot of discussion abt colour due to configuration of metal inside d coordination sphere. but,wht abt d one outside it.

Cu2 [ Fe(CN)6 ] → Cu2+ + [ Fe(CN)6 ] 4-

here, colour is due to the cation outside the coordination sphere due to shift in trasition state.
