Ques. 1JEE Main 2026, 5 April (Evening Shift)

Given below are two statements : In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

  1. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
  2. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
  3. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
  4. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

Answer

(1) Both Statement I and Statement II are correct

Solution

Statement I: As per NCERT, the greater the number of unpaired (valence) electrons, the stronger the metallic bonding between the atoms

⇒ higher enthalpy of atomisation ∴ Statement I is correct.

Statement II:

[Fe(H2O)6]3+ is octahedral ⇒ t2g (dxy, dxz, dyz) lower, eg (dx2-y2, dz2) higher

⇒ dxy = dxz = dyz < dx2-y2 = dz2 ✓

[NiCl4]2- is tetrahedral (Cl- weak field, sp3) ⇒ splitting is inverted: e (dx2-y2, dz2) lower, t2 (dxy, dxz, dyz) higher

⇒ dx2-y2 = dz2 < dxy = dxz = dyz ✓

∴ Statement II is correct.

Answer: (1)
