Choose the correct answer from the option given below:
Answer: A → III, B → I, C → IV, D → II
Solution
TiCl4: Ti is +4, d0 — configuration e0,t20. [FeO4]2−: O is −2, so Fe is +6, d2; in a tetrahedral field (e below t2) the two electrons fill e first — e2,t20. [FeCl4]−: Fe is +3, d5; tetrahedral splitting is small, so this is high-spin — e2,t23. [CoCl4]2−: Co is +2, d7, high-spin tetrahedral — e4,t23. So (A)-e0t20, (B)-e2t20, (C)-e2t23, (D)-e4t23.
