Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) (B), (C), (D), (A)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Ligand field strength: \(F^- As crystal field splitting energy (\(\Delta_o\)) increases, absorbed wavelength (\(\lambda\)) decreases (\(\Delta_o \propto 1/\lambda\)). Decreasing order of \(\lambda_{abs}\):…

- Werner was the first to describe the bonding features in coordination compounds. But his theory could not answer basic questions like :
(i) Why only certain elements possess the remarkable property of forming coordination compounds ?
(ii) Why the bonds in coordination compounds have directional properties?
(iii) Why coordination compounds have characteristics magnetic and optical properties ?
Many approaches have been put forth to explain the nature of bonding in coordination compounds viz. Valence Bond Theory (VBT), Crystal Field Theory (CFT), Ligand Field Theory (LFT) and Molecular Orbital Theory (MOT).
We shall focus our attention on elementary treatment of the application of VBT and CFT to coordination compounds.
According to this theory, the metal atom or ion under the influence of ligands can use its ( \(n -1) d , ns np\) or ns, np, nd orbitals for hybridisation
to yield a set of equivalent orbitals of definite geometry such as octahedral, tetrahedral, square planar and so on.
These hybridised orbitals are allowed to overlap with ligand orbitals that can donate electron pairs for bonding.
\(CoCl _3 \cdot 6 NH _3\) gives 3 moles of AgCl on reacting with \(AgNO _3\).

The term vitamin was coined from the word vital +amine since the earlier identified compounds had amino groups. Later work showed that most of them didn't contain amino groups, so the letter "e" was dropped and ther term vitamin is used these days.
Vitamins are classified into two groups depending upon their solubility in water or fat. Fat soluble vitamins are soluble in fat and oils but insoluble in water. They are stored in liver and adipose (fat storing) tissues. Water-soluble vitamins are soluble in water. They must be supplied regularly in the diet as they are readily excreated in urine.
