| Choose the correct answer from the options given below : |
A
A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV
B
A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
C
A-IV, B-I, C-III, D-II
D
A-III, B-I, C-II, D-IV
Answer
A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is (A) : A-III, B-II, C-I, D-IV
| LIST I Coordination entity | LIST II Wavelength of light absorbed in nm |
|---|---|
| A | [CoCl(NH3)5]2+ |
| B | [Co(NH3)6]3+ |
| C | [Co(CN)6]3− |
| D | [Cu(H2O)4]2+ |
E=λhc⇒E∝λ1
⇒Δ(CFSE)∝λabsorb11∝strength of ligand.
