Co Ordination Compounds Question 83
Question: Which of the following statements related to crystal field splitting in octahedral coordination entities is incorrect?
Options:
A) The $ dx^{2}-y^{2} $ and $ dz^{2} $ orbitals has more energy as compared to $ d_{xy},d_{yz} $ and $ d_{xz} $ orbitals.
B) Crystal field splitting energy $ ({\Delta_{o}}) $ depends directly on the charge of the metal ion and on the field produced by the ligand.
C) In the presence of $ B{r^{-}} $ as a ligand the distribution of electrons for $ d^{4} $ configuration will be $ t_{2_{g}}^{3},e_g^{1}, $
D) In the presence of $ C{N^{-}} $ as a ligand $ {\Delta_{o}} \lt P $ .
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ C{N^{-}} $ is a strong field ligand and form low spin complexes thus $ {\Delta_{o}}>P $ .
