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) Crystal field splitting (i) D o (b) Strong field ligands (ii) Low splitting energy (c) Weak field ligands (iii) High splitting energy (d) Ligand field theory (iv) Covalent character
Choose the correct matching:
A
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii
D
a-iii, b-iv, c-i, d-ii
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Crystal field splitting energy is denoted by D o, and strong field ligands are associated with high splitting energy while weak field ligands are associated with low splitting energy. Ligand field theory addresses the covalent character in bonding, which is not fully explained by CFT.
