MCQ

Which of the following cannot be explained by crystal field theory?

A
The order of spectrochemical series
B
Magnetic properties of transition metal complexes
C
Colour of metal complexes
✓
Stability of metal complexes

✓

Answer

Correct option: D.

Stability of metal complexes

d
Crystal field theory introduce spectrochemical series based upon the experimental values of $\Delta$ but can't explain it's order. While other three points are explained by $CFT$. Specially when the $CFSE$ increases thermodynamic stability of the complex increases.
