The incorrect statement among the following is:

Options

  1. AThe colour of [ N i ( H 2 O ) 6 ] 2 + changes on adding ethylene diamine.
  2. BCrystal field theory consider the covalent character of bonding between ligand and central atoms.
  3. CThe magnitude of CFSE of octahedral complexes is higher than that of corresponding tetrahedral complexes.
  4. D[ C o ( C 2 O 4 ) 3 ] 3 – does not contain unpaired electrons.

Correct answer

B. Crystal field theory consider the covalent character of bonding between ligand and central atoms.

Step-by-step solution

Crystal field theory considers the interaction between ligand and central metal atom/ion to be purely electrostatic.
