Chemistry-Crystal Field Theory

NEET Chemistry Crystal Field Theory Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Easy-Class 12

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) Strong field ligands (i) Produce large crystal field splitting (b) Weak field ligands (ii) Produce small crystal field splitting (c) e g orbitals (iii) Higher energy in octahedral complexes (d) t 2g orbitals (iv) Lower energy in octahedral complexes

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv

B

a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii

C

a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii

D

a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Strong field ligands produce large crystal field splitting, while weak field ligands result in small splitting. In octahedral complexes, the e g orbitals are at higher energy and t 2g orbitals are at lower energy, which aligns with the information from the NCERT context.
