43) As the negative charge on the metal increases, back-donation from metal d-orbitals to CO
π orbitals increases. This weakens and lengthens the C–O bond, while strengthening and
shortening the M–C bond. Hence, with increasing negative charge: C–O bond length increases
and M–C bond length decreases.

44) Stronger field ligands cause greater crystal field splitting (Δ), leading to absorption of
lower wavelength (higher energy) light.

CN– > NH3 > H2O (field strength: strong > moderate > weak)
So, crystal field splitting:

• Electronic State: Cr3+ is a 3d3 ion.

• Configuration: In an octahedral field, it is always .
• Magnetism: It has 3 unpaired electrons (n =3), making it paramagnetic.
• Moment : .
• Hybridization: It uses two inner 3d orbitals for d2sp3 (inner orbital) hybridization.
