[Co(CN)₆]³⁻ → Yellow
[Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ → Orange
[CoF₆]³⁻ → Blue
Explanation:
- All the given compounds have octahedral geometry but the ligand in each are different with the same metal ion.

- Ligands strength order:     CN⁻ > NH₃ > F⁻ 

- The ligand CN will act as a strong field ligand so that the splitting is maximum when compared to NH₃ and F⁻

- If the splitting is more, the energy required for transition is more, and the wavelength is inversely proportional to energy.

- So CN complex will absorb at lower wavelength (yellow color)

Andrews [41]

Answer:

force = 3000N

mass= 20 kg

now

F= ma

3000= 20×a

3000÷20=a

a=15

F= ma by newtons second law of motion

stepladder [879]

Answer:

The correct answer is D) Nerve tissue is found in the retina, the rods and cones at the back of the eye.
