Given below are two statements :
Statement-I : Presence of large number of unpaired electrons in transition metal atoms results in higher enthalpies of their atomization.
Statement-II : 
and 
are the d-orbital splitting in 
and 
complex ions respectively.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
Statement I :
More are the number of unpaired electrons, stronger is metal-metal boding thus higher enthalpy of atomization.
Statement II :
is octahedral complex.
Thus, 
is tetrahedral complex.
Thus,
