Consider the following complexes. \((A)\) \(\left[\mathrm{CoCl}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_5\right]^{2+}\), \(\quad\) \((B)\) \(\left[\mathrm{Co}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]^{3-} \text {, }\) \((C)\) \(\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_5\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)\right]^{3+}\), \(\quad\) \((D)\) \(\left[\mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_4\right]^{2+}\) The correct order of \(A\), \(B\), \(C\) and \(D\) in terms of wavenumber of light absorbed is _______.

  1. A \(C \) < \( D \) < \( A \) < \( B\)
  2. B \(D \) < \( A \) < \( C \) < \( B\)
  3. C \(A \) < \( C \) < \( B \) < \( D\)
  4. D \(B \) < \( C \) < \( A \) < \( D\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(D \) < \( A \) < \( C \) < \( B\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As ligand field increases, light of more energy is absorbed Energy \(\propto\) wave number \((\bar{v})\)
