Simplified absorption spectra of three complexes $(i), (ii)$ and $(iii)$ of $M^{n+}$ ion are provided below; their $\lambda_{max}$ values are marked as $A, B$ and $C$ respectively. The correct match between the complexes and their $\lambda_{max}$ values is
$(i)$ $[M(NCS)_6]^{(-6+n)}$
$(ii)$ $[MF_6]^{(-6+n)}$
$(iii)$ $[M(NH_3)_6]^{n+}$

  • A
    $A-(ii), B-(i), C-(iii)$
  • B
    $A-(iii), B-(i), C-(ii)$
  • C
    $A-(iii), B-(ii), C-(i)$
  • D

Given below are two statements,one is labelled as Assertion $A$ and the other is labelled as Reason $R$.
Assertion $A$: $[CoCl(NH_3)_5]^{2+}$ absorbs at a lower wavelength of light with respect to $[Co(NH_3)_5(H_2O)]^{3+}$.
Reason $R$: It is because the wavelength of the light absorbed depends on the oxidation state of the metal ion.
