Match List - I with List - II.
- A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
- A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
- A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
- A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
Answer
(4) A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
Solution
All complexes contain Cr3+, so o depends only on the field strength of the ligand.
Spectrochemical series: F- < H2O < en < CN-
⇒ o: [CrF6]3- < [Cr(H2O)6]3+ < [Cr(en)3]3+ < [Cr(CN)6]3-
Matching the values in increasing order:
A. [Cr(CN)6]3- → 26,600 (IV)
B. [CrF6]3- → 15,060 (I)
C. [Cr(H2O)6]3+ → 17,400 (II)
D. [Cr(en)3]3+ → 22,300 (III)
∴ A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
