Liquid oxygen is blue in colour due to :
A) Electron transition from HOMO to LUMO in visible region
B) Electron transition from HOMO to LUMO in ultraviolet region
C)Liquid oxygen has unpaired electron but gas oxygen is not
D)None of the above.

A gas is pale blue in colour on liquifaction, the colour arises from electronic transitions. This transition is forbidden in gaseous state. The gas does not burn but is a strong supported of combustion. Given the molar mass of this gas.

Which of the following species absorb maximum energy in its HOMO-LUMO electronic transition?

A metal ion from the first transition series has a magnetic moment (calculated) of 3.87 B.M. How many unpaired electrons are expected to be present in the ion?

When degenerate d-orbitals of an isolated atom/ion come under influence of magnetic field of ligands, the degeneray is lost. The two set t_(2g)(d_(xy),d_(yz),d_(xz)) and e_(g) (d_(x^(2))-d_(x^(2)-y^(2)) are either stabilized or destabilized depending upon the nature of magnetic field. it can be expressed diagrammatically as: Value of CFSE depends upon nature of ligand and a spectrochemical series has been made experimentally, for tetrahedral complexes, Delta is about 4/9 times to Delta_(0) (CFSE for octahedral complex). this energy lies in visible region and i.e., why electronic transition are responsible for colour. such transition are not possible with d^(0) and d^(10) configuration. Q. Which of the following is correct arrangement of ligand in terms of the Dq values of their complexes with any particularr 'hard' metal ion:

The colours of the transition metal are due to d-d excitation. The energy required for d-d electron axcitation is available in the visible range. Transition metal ions have the tendency to absorb certain rediations from the visible region and exhibit the complementary colour. The transition metal ions which have completely filled d-orbitals are colourless as the excitation of electron or electrons is not possible within d-orbitals. The transition metal ions which have completely empthy d-orbitals are also colourless. In KMnO_4 and K_2Cr_2O_7 , there are no unpaired electrons at the central atom but they are dep in colour. The colour of these compounds is due to charge transfer spectrum. for example in MnO_4 electron is momentrily transferred from O to the metal and thuys oxygen changes from O^(2-) and O^(ɵ) maganese from Mn^(7+) to Mn^(6+) . Q. Which of the following is paramagnetic as well as coloured ion?
