Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The crystal field splitting energy \(\Delta_0\) depends on the strength of the ligand. According to the spectrochemical series, the order of ligand strength is \(F^- < H_2O < en < CN^-\). Thus, the order of \(\Delta_0\) for the given complexes is…
