The correct statements among I to III are : (I) Valence bond theory cannot explain the color exhibited by transition metal complexes. (II) Valence bond theory can predict quantitatively the magnetic properties of transition metal complexes. (III) Valennce bond theory cannot distinguish ligands as weak and strong field ones. (1) (I), (II) and (III) (2) (II) and (III) only (3) (I) and (II) only (4) (I) and (III) only |

Answer» Correct option (4) (I) and (III) only Explanation: (1) VBT does not explain colour exhibited by complex of transition metal. (2) VBT does not distinguish between strong and weak complex. (3) VBT does not give quantitative interpretation of magnetic properties. ∴ Ascending to question statement I and III are correct |
