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

`16,000cm^(-1)`

C

`8,000 cm^(-1)`

D

`20,000 cm^(-1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

The CFSE for tetrahedral complex will be less than that for octahedral complex. Therefore, it is the correct answer.
