Match ALL applicable properties. Use ideal CFT and orbital CFSE without pairing energy. gly⁻ is an unsymmetrical N,O-chelate. Which complete code is correct?

List-I

List-II

[P] [Fe(CN)₆]⁴⁻

[1] Diamagnetic

[Q] [Cr(H₂O)₆]³⁺

[2] Has an enantiomeric pair

[R] tetrahedral [Be(gly)₂]

[3] Orbital CFSE = −2.4Δₒ

[S] low-spin [Rh(en)₃]³⁺

[4] Three unpaired electrons

Options:

Answer:
A
Solution:

P is paired ⁶ with −2.4Δₒ and no optical pair. Q is d³ with three unpaired electrons. R is d⁰, diamagnetic and chiral as a tetrahedral bis-unsymmetrical-chelate. S is paired d⁶ with the Δ/Λ tris-chelate pair, matching 1,2,3.
