Chemistry-Crystal Field Theory
NEET Chemistry Crystal Field Theory Match the Following Question
Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 12
Match Column-I with Column-II.
| Column-I | Column-II |
|---|---|
| (a) Strong field ligands | (i) Increase crystal field splitting energy |
| (b) Weak field ligands | (ii) Decrease crystal field splitting energy |
| (c) d orbitals splitting | (iii) Generates paramagnetic properties |
| (d) Unpaired electrons | (iv) Causes diamagnetic properties |
A
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
B
a-ii, b-i, c-iv, d-iii
C
a-i, b-iii, c-ii, d-iv
D
a-iv, b-iii, c-i, d-ii
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
Strong field ligands increase the crystal field splitting energy, while weak field ligands decrease it. The presence of unpaired electrons leads to paramagnetism, whereas paired electrons result in diamagnetism, aligning with the concepts of crystal field theory.
