An aqueous solution of metal ion (A) gives a blood-red colored product (B) upon reaction with KSCN. Upon dropwise addition of NaF, the complex turns to a colorless compound (C). Identify A,B and C
(a)aq. $\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{II}),\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{SCN})\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{5}\right]^{+}$ and $\left[\mathrm{Fe}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}\right]^{2+}$
(b)aq. $\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{III}),\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{SCN})\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{5}\right]^{2+}$ and $\left[\mathrm{FeF}_{6}\right]^{3+}$
