According to crystal field theory, the \( M \) - Lbond in a complex is
- A purely ionio
- B purely covalent
- C purely co-ordinate
- D partially covalent
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) purely ionio
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The assumption of CFT is that \( M \) - \( L \) interactions are purely electrostatic in nature. In an octahedral metal complex
electrostatic interaction of a positively charged metal ion with six negatively charged ligands or with the negative ends of
dipoles associated with the six ligands can be seen.
