The order of energy absorbed which is responsible for the color of complexes(A) [Ni(H2O)2(en)2]2+(B) [Ni(H2O)4(en)2+ and(C) [Ni(en)3]2+(1) (C)>(B)>(A)(2) (C)>(A)>(B)(3) (B)>(A)>(C)(4) (A)>(B)>(C)

Answer»

Correct option is (2) (C)>(A)>(B)

(A) [Ni(H2O)2(en)2]2+

(B) [Ni(H2O)4,(en)]2+

(C) [Ni(en)3]2+

en is SFL (strong field ligand)

As the number of en (strong ligand) increase splitting also increases.

So, Δ0 increases.

i.e. maximum energy will be absorbed in case of option C.

So the order is C > A > B
