Which of these crystal-field splitting diagrams represents:
a. a weak-field octahedral complex of Fe³⁺ ,
b. a strong-field octahedral complex of Fe³⁺
c. a tetrahedral complex of Fe³⁺
d. a tetrahedral complex of Ni²⁺ (The diagrams do not indicate the relative magnitudes of ∆. ) [Find more in Section 23.6.]
In the linear crystal-field shown here, the negative charges are on the z-axis. Using Figure 23.28 as a guide, predict which of the following choices most accurately describes the splitting of the d orbitals in a linear crystal-field? [Find more in Section 23.6.]
Write out the ground-state electron configurations of b. Ru²⁺
Which type of substance is attracted by a magnetic field, a diamagnetic substance or a paramagnetic substance?
The lobes of which d orbitals point directly between the ligands in a. octahedral geometry,
The lobes of which d orbitals point directly between the ligands in b. tetrahedral geometry?
