NEET Chemistry Coordination Number Assertion Reason Question
Assertion (A): Removal of water from [Ti(H2O)6]Cl3 on heating renders it colorless. | Reason (R): In the absence of ligand, crystal field splitting does not occur.
Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.
Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
A is true but R is false.
A is false.
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
The NCERT text explains that in the absence of ligand, crystal field splitting does not occur, leading to the loss of color, as illustrated by the example of [Ti(H2O)6]Cl3.
