The magnitude of crystal field stabilisa...

The magnitude of crystal field stabilisation energy (CFSE of `Delta_(1)`) in tetrahedral complexes is considerably less than that in the octahderal field. Because

A

There are only four ligands instead of six so the ligands filled is only 2/3 in tetrahedral complex

B

The direction of the orbital does not coincide with the direction of the ligands. This reduces the crystal field stabilization energy `(Delta)` by further 2/3

C

Both point (A) and (B) are correct

D

Both point (A) and (B) are wrong.
