Q26 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (31 Jan Shift 2) · Chemistry

If the CFSE of TiH2O63+ is -96.0 kJ/mol, this complex will absorb maximum at wavelength nm. (nearest integer)

Assume Planck' constant (h)=6.4×10-34Js, Speed of light (c)=3.0×108 m/s and Avogadro's constant NA=6×1023/mol.

Correct answer: 480

Solution

In TiH2O63+, oxidation state of Titanium is +3.
Thus, electronic configuration:

Ti+3:3d1⇒t2g1,0,0,eg0,0

We know CFSE =-0.4nt2g+0.6negΔo       (      Δo = Octahedral splitting energy)

Δo=96×1030.4×6×1023=4×10-19 J

Using planck's equation and fact that octahedral splitting energy per complex is:
⇒Δo=hcλ=4×10-19 J

⇒λ=6.4×10-34×3×1084×10-19=4.8×10-7 m

⇒λ=480×10-9 m

∴λ=480 nm

 

Hence, the correct answer is 480.
