Consider the following complexes
I) CoNH363+
II) CoF63-
III) CoNO263-
the increasing order of wavelength of light absorbed is
II, I, III
I, II, III
III, II, I
III, I, II
Energy(or frequency) of light absorbed ∝ field strength of ligand; Wavelength of light absorbed ∝1field strength of ligand; Field strength of NO2->NH3>F- ∴Order of wavelength absorbed : III<I<II ;
