A : [Ni(en)3]2+ , B : [Ni(NH3)6]2+ , C : [Ni(H2O)6]2+
Choose an option
Show full solutionCorrect option: A
Correct answer
AC < B < A
Step-by-step explanation
Stronger is ligand attached to metal ion, greater will be the splitting between and (hence greater will be
Greater will be absorption of energy.
Hence correct order
Greater will be absorption of energy.
Hence correct order
