The crystal field splitting energy for octahedral `(Delta_(0)) and ` tetrahedral `(Delta_(1))` complexes is related as

A

`Delta_(t)=-(1)/(2)Delta_(0)`

B

`Delta_(t)=-(4)/(9)Delta_(0)`

C

`Delta_(t)=-(3)/(5) Delta_(0)`

D

`Delta_(t)=-(2)/(5)Delta_(0)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The crystal field splitting in tetrahedral complexes is lower than that in octahedral complexes, and
`Delta_(t)=-(4)/(9)Delta_(0)`.
