JEE Main 2025 — 24 January, Evening Shift — Question 34

The conditions and consequence that favours the t2 g3,eg1\mathrm{t}_{2 \mathrm{~g}}{ }^{3}, \mathrm{e}_{\mathrm{g}}{ }^{1} configuration in a metal complex are :

  1. Option A:

    weak field ligand, high spin complex

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    strong field ligand, high spin complex

  3. Option C:

    strong field ligand, low spin complex

  4. Option D:

    weak field ligand, low spin complex

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

For 3d43 d^{4}

If ligand is SFL : t2 g4eg0\mathrm{t}_{2 \mathrm{~g}}{ }^{4} \mathrm{e}_{\mathrm{g}}{ }^{0} \quad (Low spin)

If ligand is WFL : t2 g3eg1\mathrm{t}_{2 \mathrm{~g}}{ }^{3} \mathrm{e}_{\mathrm{g}}{ }^{1} (High spin)
