The correct sequence of ligands in the order of decreasing field strength is :
Options
- A( NCS ⁻> EDTA ⁴⁻> CN ⁻> CO )
- B( CO > H ₂ O > F ⁻> S ²⁻ )
- C( S ²⁻>- OH > EDTA ⁴⁻> CO )
- D( ⁻ OH > F ⁻> NH ₃> CN ⁻ )
Correct answer
B. ( CO > H ₂ O > F ⁻> S ²⁻ )
Step-by-step solution
According to spectrochemical series ligand field strength is CO > H ₂ O > F ⁻> S ²⁻
