JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2019 - 12th April Morning Slot - No. 5)

Complete removal of both the axial ligands (along the z-axis) from an octahedral complex leads to which of the following splitting patterns? (relative orbital energies not on scale).

Explanation

The field becomes square planar and the order of energy is
$${d_{{x^2} - {y^2}}} > {d_{xy}} > {d_{{z^2}}} > {d_{zx}} = {d_{yz}}$$
