NEET Chemistry Crystal Field Theory Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Strong field ligands (i) Low splitting of d orbitals (b) Weak field ligands (ii) High splitting of d orbitals (c) Paramagnetic substances (iii) Unpaired electrons (d) Diamagnetic substances (iv) All electrons paired
Choose the correct matching:
a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv
a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii
a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Strong field ligands cause high splitting of d orbitals, which leads to lower energy configurations, while weak field ligands result in low splitting. Paramagnetic substances have unpaired electrons, whereas diamagnetic substances have all electrons paired.
