Question

Tanabe–Sugano diagrams plot the quotient of a splitting energy symbolized Dq induced by these compounds and the Racah B parameter. For 10 points each:
[10e] Name these compounds whose binding to metal cations to form coordination complexes is described by crystal field theory. The spectrochemical series sorts these compounds by increasing strength.
ANSWER: ligands
[10m] In crystal field theory, ligand binding causes the five d orbitals to split into two orbitals, one of which is triply degenerate and lower in energy and the other of which is doubly degenerate and higher in energy. Name either.
ANSWER: t-sub-2g OR e-sub-g
[10h] These diagrams qualitatively describe electronic energies in weak field transition metal complexes. These diagrams describe the symmetries of spin-allowed transitions and can be denoted D, F, or P.
ANSWER: Orgel diagrams
