The correct statements from the following are:
A. The strength of anionic ligands can be explained by crystal field theory.
B. Valence bond theory does not give a quantitative interpretation of kinetic stability of coordination compounds.
C. The hybridization involved in formation of complex is .
D. The number of possible isomer(s) of cis- is one
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Options
- AA, D only
- BA, C only
- CB, D only
- DB, C only
Correct answer
D. B, C only
Step-by-step solution
The strength of ligands discussed in spectrochemical series.
According to the limitations of VBT,
It does not give a quantitative interpretation of the thermodynamic or kinetic stabilities of coordination compounds.
Hybridisation of is .
The outer electronic configuration of ion is .
It is a square planar complex. Cyanide ion is a strong field ligand, thus all electrons will be paired.
One , one and two orbitals undergo hybridization, four equivalent hybrid orbitals which are occupied by electron pairs of cyanide ligands.
This forms
complex exhibits optical isomerism, hence, it has two isomers.
Hence statement B and C are correct.
