Assertion : In high spin situation, configuration of ions will be
Reason : In high spin situation, pairing energy is less than crystal field energy.
Options
- AIf both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
- BIf both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
- CIf assertion is true but reason is false.
- DIf both assertion and reason are false.
Correct answer
C. If assertion is true but reason is false.
Step-by-step solution
In high spin situation, , in configuration, and electron are added to rather than . So configuration of ion will be .
