Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
A is true but R is false
The assertion states that \([ \text{CoCl}(\text{NH}_3)_5 ]^{2+}\) absorbs at a lower wavelength compared to \([ \text{CoCl}(\text{NH}_3)_5(\text{H}_2\text{O}) ]^{3+}\).
The reason states that the wavelength of light absorbed depends on the oxidation state of the metal ion. This is true. A higher oxidation state of the central metal ion increases the CFSE, resulting in the absorption of light at a lower wavelength (higher energy).
Assertion A is false, but Reason R is true.
In the complex ion Fe(C2O4)3 the Co-ordination number of Fe is
