| (I) \[[Mn{{(C{{l}_{6}}]}^{3\,-}},\] \[{{[Fe{{F}_{5}}]}^{3\,-}}\] and \[{{[Co{{F}_{5}}]}^{3\,-}}\] are paramagnetic having four, five and four unpaired electrons respectively. |
| (II) Valence bond theory gives a quantitative interpretation of the thermodynamics stabilities of coordination compounds. |
| (III) The crystal field splitting \[{{\Delta }_{0}},\] depends upon the field produced by the ligand and charge on the metal ion. |
| Amongs the following correct statements are - |
A) I, II
B) I, III
C) I, II, III
D) II, III
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
I. : As all are weak field ligands therefore all will have same number of unpaired electrons as in central metal ion. II. : V.B.T. does not give any interpretation about the relative thermodynamic stabilities of various complexes. This is one of the limitation of V.B.T. III. : is correct statement.
