Vedclass · Answer

(A) The crystal field splitting strength depends on the ability of the ligand to donate electron density to the metal center.
Carbon is the least electronegative among $C$,$N$,and $O$,allowing it to donate electron density more effectively,often involving $\pi$-backbonding.
Nitrogen is less electronegative than oxygen,making it a better donor than oxygen.
Therefore,the order of field strength is $C^{-} 	ext{ donor} > N^{-} 	ext{ donor} > O^{-} 	ext{ donor}$.

Which of the following is the correct order of crystal field splitting strength for ligands based on the donor atom?
