Crystal field theory was proposed by H. Bethe (1929) and Van Vleck (1932) and as originally
applied to ionic crystals to explain their optical properties and is, therefore, called crystal field
theory. However, this theory was applied to the study of coordination compounds in 1950 & this
theory accounts for more satisfactory explanation for the properties of complexes especially
colour and magnetism.

Paragraph for 𝐐. 𝟏𝟏 & 𝟏𝟐.
According to the Valence Bond Theory (VBT), the metal atom or ion under the influence of the
ligands can use its (n-1)d, ns, np and nd orbitals for hybridization. These hybrid orbitals overlap
with ligand orbitals that can donate electron pairs for bonding. The symbol "१L" indicates

electrons in metal and the symbol "xx" indicates electrons from the ligand. (Write approprite
alphabets in the boxes)
11. Using VBT match the complexes (1-3) with appropriate hybridization schemes (a-c).
