प्रश्न
Why a solution of [Ni(H2O)6]2+ is green while a solution of [Ni(CN)4]2− is colourless? (At. no. of Ni = 28)
उत्तर
In [Ni(H2O)6]2+, H2ö is a weak field ligand. Therefore, there are unpaired electrons in Ni2+. In this complex, the d electrons from the lower energy level can be excited to the higher energy level i.e., the possibility of d−d transition is present. Hence, Ni(H2O)6]2+ is coloured.
In [Ni(CN)4]2−, the electrons are all paired as CN- is a strong field ligand. Therefore, d-d transition is not possible in [Ni(CN)4]2−. Hence, it is colourless.
