Q16 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (11 Apr Shift 2) · Chemistry
Given below are two statements, one is labelled as assertion and the other is labelled as Reason .
assertion : absorbs at lower wavelength of light with respect to
Reason : It is because the wavelenght of light absorbed depends on the oxidation state of the metal ion.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:
assertion : absorbs at lower wavelength of light with respect to
Reason : It is because the wavelenght of light absorbed depends on the oxidation state of the metal ion.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- Correct answerAis false but is true
- Bis true but is false
- CBoth and are true and is the correct explaination of
- DBoth and are true and is NOT the correct explaination of
Solution
absorbs with higher wavelength of light with respect to because is weaker ligand than . The crystal field stabilisation is higher for , hence we can say that wavelength of light absorbed depends upon the oxidation state of the metal ion.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
