Answer» Correct Answer - 1
The order of the ligand in the spectrochemical series `:`
`F lt H_(2)O lt NH_(3) lt NO_(2)`
Hence the wavelength of the light observed will be in the order `:`
`[NiF_(6)]^(4-) lt [Ni(H_(2)O)_(6)]^(2+) lt [Ni(NH_(3))_(6)]^(42+) lt [Ni(NO_(2))_(6)]^(4-)`
Thus, wavelength absorbed `[E=(hc)/(lambda)]` will be in the opposite order.
