- Aa and d only
- Bc and d only
- Ca and b only
- Db and c only
Correct answer
A. a and d only
Step-by-step solution
So if there are strong field ligands in complex, pairing of electrons will take place, due to which number of unpaired electrons decrease due to which magnetic moment decrease. ( c ) Splitting power of ethylenediamine (en) is greater than fluoride F − ligand therefore more energy absorbed by Co en 3 +    as compared to CoF 6 3 − So wave length of light absorbed by Co en 3 + is lower than that of CoF 6 3 − (d)  Δ t = 4 9 Δ 0 so if   Δ 0 = 18 , 000
