Match the complex ions given in Column I with the colours given in Column II and assign the correct code.
Column~I Column~II (Complex ion) (Colour)A. [Co(NH3)6]3+1. VioletB. [Ti(H2O)6]3+2. GreenC. [Ni(H2O)6]2+3. Pale blueD. [Ni(H2O)4(en)]2+ (aq)4. Yellowixh orange
Codes
ABCD(a)1245(b)4321(c)3241(d)4123
A.→(4) B.→(3) C.→(2) B.→(1)
Colour of the coordination compound is closely related to CFSE of the coordination compound. Depending upon the CFSE of given coordination compounds. Correct matching will be as follows.
Column~I Column~II (Complex ion) (Colour)(A). [Co(NH3)6]3+(4). Yellowixh orange(B). [Ti(H2O)6]3+(3). Pale blue(C). [Ni(H2O)6]2+(2). Green(D). [Ni(H2O)4(en)]2+ (aq)(1). Violet
Hence, correct choice is (b).
