A) Low spin
B) High spin
C) d-d transition
D) Coloured
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Tetrahedral complexes show \[s{{p}^{3}}\]hybridisation, so low spin (pairing of electrons in the d-orbitals) is false for tetrahedral complexes. Tetrahedral complexes show d-d transition due to high spin of d-orbitals. Tetrahedral complexes are coloured due to the absence of symmetry and presence of unpaired electron in d-orbitals.
