Correct increasing order for the wavelengths of absorption in the visible region for the complexes of Co3+ is :
[Co(en)3]3+, [Co(NH3)6]3+, [Co(H2O)6]3+
[Co(H2O)6]3+, [Co(en)3]3+, [Co(NH3)6]3+
[Co(H2O)6]3+, [Co(NH3)6]3+, [Co(en)3]3+
[Co(NH3)6]3+, [Co(en)3]3+, [Co(H2O)6]3+
As we discused
Spectrochemical series -
-
On increasing strength of ligand wavelength of absorbed radiation decreases
order of spectrochemical series=
Order of absorbed wavelength=
Option 1)
[Co(en)3]3+, [Co(NH3)6]3+, [Co(H2O)6]3+
This is correct option
Option 2)
[Co(H2O)6]3+, [Co(en)3]3+, [Co(NH3)6]3+
This is incorrect option
Option 3)
[Co(H2O)6]3+, [Co(NH3)6]3+, [Co(en)3]3+
This is incorrect option
Option 4)
[Co(NH3)6]3+, [Co(en)3]3+, [Co(H2O)6]3+
This is incorrect option
