II.Assertion-Reason questions
Directions:- (Q.NoS. 6 to 9) each of these equations contains two
statements:Assertion and Reason. Each of these questions also has four alternative
choices, only one of which is the correct answer. You have to select one of the codes
a,b, c, d given below.
a) Both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct statements, and Reason® is the
correct explanation of the Asssertion(A).
b) Both Assertion(A) and Reason( R) are correct statements, but the Reason(R) is
not the correct explanation of the Assertion(A).
c) Assertion (A) is correct, but the Reason (R) is incorrect statement.
d) Assertion(A) is incorrect, but the Reason ( R) is correct statement.
6. Assertion (A)- Low spin tetrashedral complexes are rarely observed.
Reason(R)-Crystal field splitting energy is less than pairing energy for tetrahedral
complexes.
7. Assertion(A)- F- ion is a weak ligand and forms outer orbital complex.
Reason(R)- F- ion cannot force the electrons of dz 2 and dx2-y2 orbitals to occupy
dxy, dyz and dzx orbitals of the same shell.
8. Assertion(A)- Geometrical isomerism is also called cis-trans isomerism.
Reason(R)- Tetrahedral complexes shows geometrical complexes shows
geometrical isomerism.
9. Assertion(A)- [Ti(H2O)]3+ is coloured and [Sc(H2O)6]3+ is colorless.
Reason- [Sc(H2O)6]3+ has d2sp2 type of hybridization.
SECTION -B
Case Study
(Read the passage given below and answer the following questions)
Case I Valence bond theory decribes the bonding in complexes in terms of
coordinate covalent bonds resulting from overlap filled ligand orbitals with
vacant metal hybrid orbitals. This theory explains magnetic behaviour and
geometrical shape of coordination compounds.
Magnetic moment of a complex, compound can be determined experimentally
and theoretically by using spin only formula.
Magnetic moment √n(n+2) BM (where, n = no. of unpaired electrons)
10. Write the state of hybridisation, shape and the magnetic behaviour of the
[Cr(H2O)2(C2O4)2]-.
11. Why s-orbital does not show preference to any direction?
12. Why is [CoF6]3-is paramagnetic but [Co(NH3)6]3+ is diamagnetic in nature?
13. Describe the type of hybridisation, shape and magnetic properites of
[Co(NH3)4 Cl₂] CI
{Given: At. no. of Co= 27}
Or
Explain the geometry and magnetic character of complex [Cr(NH3)6]3+.
SECTION-C
Short answer type questions
14. a)Draw the geometrical isomers of [Cr (NH3 )2 (CN)4)]- ?
b)Write formula for the following compounds.
Hexammineplatinum (VI) Chloride
15. Explain that the complex [Co (NH3)6]3+ is diamagnetic on the basis of valence
bond theory
16. [Ni(CO)4]2+ is square planar whereas [NiBr4]2- is tetrahedral . Explain
