    The   correct   order   of  the   ligands, \[O{{H}^{-}},NO_{3}^{-},PP{{h}_{3}},\]pyridine, according to their increasing field strength is

    A)  \[NO_{3}^{-}<O{{H}^{-}}<pyridne<PP{{h}_{3}}\]

    B)  \[O{{H}^{-}}<NO_{3}^{-}<PP{{h}_{3}}<pyridne\]

    C)  \[O{{H}^{-}}<NO_{3}^{-}<pyridne<PP{{h}_{3}}\]

    D)  \[NO_{3}^{-}<O{{H}^{-}}<PP{{h}_{3}}<pridine\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Increasing order of crystal field splitting power is as follows: \[\underset{weak\text{ }field\text{ }ligand}{\mathop{NO_{3}^{-}<O{{H}^{-}}}}\,\underset{strong\text{ }field\text{ }ligand}{\mathop{<pyridine<PP{{h}_{3}}}}\,\]
