The CFSE for octahedral `[CoCl_(6)]^(4-)` is `18,000 cm^(-1)`. The CFSE for tetrahedral `[CoCl_(4)]^(2-)` will be

A

`18, 000 cm^(-1)`

B

`16,000 cm^(-1)`

C

`8,000 cm^(-1)`

D

`20,000 cm^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`Delta_(t) = 4//9 Delta_(0) ( 4//9) (18,000 cm^(-1)) = 8000 cm^(-1)`
