- Read the passage carefully and answer the questions:
The degeneracy of the \(d\) orbitals has been removed due to ligand electron-metal electron repulsions in the octahedral comple: to yield three orbitals of lower energy, \(t_{2 g}\) set and two orbitals of higher energy, \(e_g\) set. This splitting of the degenerate levels due to the presence of ligands in a definite geometry is termed as crystal field splitting and the energy separation is denoted by \(\Delta_0\). Thus energy of the two \(e_g\) orbitals will increase by \((3 / 5) \Delta_0\) and that of three \(t_{2 g}\) will decrease by \((2 / 5) \Delta_0\). The crystal field splitting \(\Delta_0\) depends upon the field produced by the ligand and charge on the metal ion. Some ligands are able to produce strong fields, in which case the splitting will be large, whereas others produce weak fields and consequently result in small splitting of \(d\) orbitals. Relative magnitude of crystal field splitting energy \(\Delta_0\) and pairing energy, \(P\) (energy required for electron paring in a single orbital) determine the formation of low spin ( \(\Delta_0>P\) ) or high spin ( \(\Delta_0<P\) ) complex. In tetrahedral coordination entity formation, the \(d\)-orbital splitting is inverted and is smaller as compared to the octahedral field splitting. The crystal field theory attributes the colour of the complex to \(d-d\) transition of the electron. The colour of the coordination compounds depends on the crystal field splitting. In the absence of ligand, crystal field splitting does not occur and hence the substance is colourless.
Which of the following complex is not expected to be coloured?CUET 2023 Medium - Question based on following passage :
Adsorption is the process of attracting and retaining the adsorbate molecules on the surface of adsorbent. It is of two types i.e. Physisrption and chemisorption. To increase the rate of reaction, the substance called 'catalyst' is added. Promotors enhance the activity of catalyst while poison decrease the catalyst activity. Solutions may be true solution, suspension and colloids. Colloids are heterogenous but quite stable. On the basis of nature of interaction, colloids may be Lyophilic or Lyophobic. On the basis of type of dispersed phase particles, there may be multimolecular colloids, macromlecular colloids and associated colloids. The congulation of colloids may be done by boiling, dialysis or by mixing oppositely charged sols.
