Why does the complex [Ti(H 2 O) 6 ] 3+ exhibit a violet colour based on crystal field theory?
Options
- AThe violet colour arises because of d-d transition due to d 1 configuration of Titanium
- BThe violet colour is due to the weak ligand-field interactions between water molecules and the titanium ion.
- CThe violet colour results from the high spin state of the complex, causing the absorption of violet light.
- DThe violet colour is a result of the low spin state of the complex, causing the absorption of violet light.
Correct answer
A. The violet colour arises because of d-d transition due to d 1 configuration of Titanium
Step-by-step solution
Correct Option is : (A) The violet colour arises because of d-d transition due to d 1 configuration of Titanium
