Assertion : On cooling a freezing mixture, colour of the mixture turns to pink from deep blue for a reaction. Co(H2O)62+(aq)+4Cl(aq)−⇌{Co}\left({H}_2 {O}\right)_6^{2+}{ }_{(a q)}+4 {Cl}_{(a q)}^{-} \rightleftharpoons CoCl42−(aq)+6H2O(l){CoCl}_4^{2-}(a q)+6 {H}_2 {O}_{(l)}.

Reason : Reaction is endothermic so on cooling, the reaction moves to backward direction.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
The correct answer is A because the reaction is endothermic, and according to Le Chatelier's principle, cooling favors the reverse reaction, shifting the equilibrium towards the reactants and changing the color from blue to pink.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
[Fe(CO)5]\left[ {\mathrm{Fe}{{\left( {\mathrm{CO}} \right)}_5}} \right]
Option B ([Fe(CO)5]) is correct because a lower positive or higher negative charge on the metal center increases back-bonding, weakening the C-O bond. Since Fe has no charge, it has the lowest backbonding among the negatively and positively charged species.

View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Of the d4{d^4} species, manganese (III) is strongly reducing while Cr2+C{r^{2 + }} is strongly oxidising.

Which one of the following species doesn’t have a magnetic moment of 1.73 BM (spin only value)?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
CuICuI

Colour of transition metal complexes can be explained by:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
d−dd - d transition
