Which of the following accurately expresses the relative magnitudes of crystal field splitting energ — Coordination Compounds Chemistry Question

💡 Solution & Explanation

Splitting is extreme in square planar ($\Delta_{sp} \approx 1.3 \Delta_o$), standard in octahedral ($\Delta_o$), and weak in tetrahedral ($\Delta_t \approx 0.45 \Delta_o$). Order is $\Delta_{sp} > \Delta_o > \Delta_t$ [47].
