what is the relationsphip between observed colour of the complex and the wavelength of light absorbed by the complex ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To understand the relationship between the observed color of a coordination complex and the wavelength of light it absorbs, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Color Absorption**: - Coordination complexes can absorb certain wavelengths of light. The color that a complex appears to the eye is the color of light that is not absorbed but rather transmitted or reflected. 2. **Complementary Color Theory**: ...
