24. Transition Metals and Coordination Compounds / Strong-Field vs Weak-Field Ligands / Problem 1

At 480 nm, the ion, [Cr(CN)6]3-, displays one absorption peak. Determine its crystal field splitting energy, Δ (kJ/mol), and the color of that ion. Is CN- a stronger or weaker field ligand compared to NH3?
