Which outcome affects nitrogen fixation using iron-sulfur clusters?

A)Orbital hybridization prevents complete electron transfer
B)Ligand field splitting alters redox potentials
C)Electron delocalization avoids superoxo formation
D)Hydrogen bonding prevents substrate reduction

💡 Explanation

Ligand field splitting affects the electronic structure of the iron-sulfur clusters, altering their redox potentials, because it modifies the d-orbital energies. Therefore, nitrogen fixation efficiency changes, rather than preventing electron transfer due to orbital hybridization.
