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 splitting (d) t 2g orbitals (iv) Lower energy in octahedral splitting
Choose the correct matching:
A
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
D
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Strong field ligands produce large splitting of d orbitals, while weak field ligands cause small splitting. In octahedral splitting, the e g orbitals are at higher energy compared to the t 2g orbitals, which are at lower energy.
