Q. The value of $\Delta_{o}$ for $RhCl^{3-}_{6}$ is $234$ kJ/mol. What wavelength of light will promote an electron and the colour of the complex respectively are

Coordination Compounds

Solution:

$\Delta_{o} RhCl^{-3}_{6}$ is 243 kJ/mol
$\lambda=\frac{6.626 \times10^{-34}\times3\times10^{8}}{234\times10^{3}}$
$= 511$ nm. Nearest color is orange.
