Given below are two statements, one is labelled as assertionAand the other is labelled as ReasonR.
assertionA:CoClNH352+absorbs at lower wavelength of light with respect toCoNH35H2O3+
ReasonR: It is because the wavelenght of light absorbed depends on the oxidation state of the metal ion.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

CoClNH352+absorbs with higher wavelength of light with respect toCoNH35H2O3+becauseCl-is weaker ligand thanH2O. The crystal field stabilisation is higher forCoNH35H2O3+, hence we can say that wavelength of light absorbed depends upon the oxidation state of the metal ion.
