Q1 FREE PREVIEW

The correct sequence of ligands in the order of decreasing field strength is :

a

\({S}^{2-}>\overset{-}{O}H>EDT{A}^{4-}>CO\)

b

\(O{H}^{-}>{F}^{-}>N{H}_{3}>C{N}^{-}\)

c

\(CO>{H}_{2}O>{F}^{-}>{S}^{2-}\)

d

\(NC{S}^{-}>EDT{A}^{4-}>C{N}^{-}>CO\)

✓ Correct answer: c)

\(CO>{H}_{2}O>{F}^{-}>{S}^{2-}\)

Explanation

\(\mathrm{strong}\mathrm{ligand}>\mathrm{N}/\mathrm{O}\mathrm{donor}>\mathrm{weak}\mathrm{ligand}\)
