Chapter 21, Problem 21.140d

Cobalt(III) trifluoroacetylacetonate, Co1tfac23, is a sixcoordinate, octahedral metal chelate in which three planar, bidentate tfac ligands are attached to a central Co atom:

(d) Draw a crystal field energy-level diagram for Co1tfac23, and predict its magnetic properties. (In this complex, tfac is a strong-field ligand.)
