    The complex that has highest crystal field splitting energy \[(\Delta )\], is: [JEE Main Online Paper (Held On 09-Jan-2019 Evening]

    A) \[{{K}_{3}}\left[ Co{{\left( CN \right)}_{6}} \right]\]

    B) \[{{K}_{2}}\left[ CoC{{l}_{4}} \right]\]

    C) \[\left[ Co{{\left( N{{H}_{3}} \right)}_{5}}Cl \right]\text{ }C{{l}_{2}}\]

    D) \[\left[ Co{{\left( N{{H}_{3}} \right)}_{5}}\left( {{H}_{2}}O \right)C{{l}_{3}} \right]\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Complex \[{{K}_{3}}\,\left[ Co{{\left( CN \right)}_{6}} \right]\] have \[C{{N}^{-}}\] ligand which is a strong field ligand amongst the given ligands in all complexes, therefore CFSE is highest.
