Why are low spin tetrahedral complexes not formed?

अति संक्षिप्त उत्तर

उत्तर

For tetrahedral complexes, the crystal field splitting energy is too low. It is lower than the pairing energy, so the pairing of electrons is not favoured, and therefore the complexes cannot form low-spin complexes.

Crystal field splitting by various ligands

Metal complexes show different colours due to d-d transitions. The complex absorbs light of specific wavelength to promote the electron from t2g to eg level. The colour of the complex is due to the transmitted light, which is complementary of the colour absorbed.

The wave number of light absorbed by different complexes of Cr ion are given below:

Complex Wavenumber of light absorbed (cm-1) Energy of light absorbed (kJ/mol)
[CrA6]3- 13,640 163
[CrB6]3+ 17,830 213
[CrC6]3+ 21,680 259
[CrD6]3- 26,280 314

(a) Out of ligands "A", "B", "C" and "D", which ligand causes maximum crystal field splitting? Why?

OR

Which of the two, “A” or “D” will be a weak field ligand? Why?

(b) Which of the complexes will be violet in colour? [CrA6]3- or [CrB6]3+ and why?
(Given: If 560 - 570 nm of light is absorbed, the colour of the complex observed is violet.)

(c) If the ligands attached to Cr3+ ion in the complexes given in the table above are water, cyanide ion, chloride ion, and ammonia (not in this order).

  1. [CrA6]3-
  2. [CrC6]3+
