The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Analyze the Assertion The assertion states that `[Cr(H₂O)₆]^(3+)` is an inner orbital complex. 1. **Determine the oxidation state of chromium (Cr)**: - Let the oxidation state of Cr be \( x \). - The overall charge of the complex is \( +3 \). - Each water molecule is neutral, contributing \( 0 \). - Therefore, we have: \[ x + 6(0) = +3 \implies x = +3 \] 2. **Determine the electron configuration of chromium in the +3 oxidation state**: - The atomic number of chromium is 24, with the electron configuration of \( [Ar] 3d^5 4s^1 \). - In the +3 oxidation state, two electrons are removed from the 3d and 4s orbitals: \[ [Ar] 3d^3 4s^0 \] 3. **Identify the hybridization**: - In the presence of 6 water ligands, which are neutral and can donate lone pairs, we can determine the hybridization. - The hybridization involving the 3d orbitals (inner d orbitals) and the 4s and 4p orbitals leads to: \[ \text{Hybridization: } d^2sp^3 \] - Since the 3d orbitals are involved, this confirms that it is indeed an inner orbital complex. ### Conclusion for Assertion: - The assertion is **true** because `[Cr(H₂O)₆]^(3+)` is an inner orbital complex. ### Step 2: Analyze the Reason The reason states that \( H₂O \) is a strong ligand generally. 1. **Identify the nature of \( H₂O \) as a ligand**: - Water (\( H₂O \)) is generally classified as a **weak field ligand**. - In crystal field theory, weak field ligands do not cause significant splitting of the d-orbitals and do not favor electron pairing. ### Conclusion for Reason: - The reason is **false** because \( H₂O \) is a weak field ligand, not a strong one. ### Final Conclusion: - The assertion is true, and the reason is false. Therefore, the correct option is that the assertion is true but the reason is false. ### Answer: The correct option is **3**: Assertion is true, Reason is false. ---
