Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) D > A > B > C

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

We know \(\mathrm{E}=\mathrm{h} v=\frac{\mathrm{hC}}{\lambda}\) \(\mathrm{E} \propto \frac{1}{\lambda}\) Here all Co in +3 oxidation state. So, as the ligand field strength \(\uparrow, \operatorname{CFSE} \uparrow\) Order of field strength of ligand :…
