The complex that has highest crystal field splitting energy 
is:
A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
D
In case of similar metal atom or ion, the value of - ordination number and the strength of the ligands determine the value of crystal field splitting energy. Greater the co-ordination number and strength of value of the ligand, greater will be the value of 
. Strength of ligands: 
has the highest crystal field splitting energy
