Q. Which of the following is the correct increasing order of strength in spectrochemical series of ligands?

$E D T A^{4 -} < C_{2} O_{4}^{2 -} < C l^{-} < N O_{3}^{-} < C N^{-}$

$E D T A^{4 -} < C_{2} O_{4}^{2 -} < N O_{3}^{2 -} < C N^{-} < C l^{-}$

$C N^{-} < C l^{-} < N O_{3}^{-} < C_{2} O_{4}^{2 -} < E D T A^{4 -}$

$C l^{-} < N O_{3}^{-} < C_{2} O_{4}^{2 -} < E D T A^{4 -} < C N^{-}$

Correct answer is (d) $C l^{-} < N O_{3}^{-} < C_{2} O_{4}^{2 -} < E D T A^{4 -} < C N^{-}$
