6.) a.) In the series of Werner complexes (after the German-Swiss chemist) [CoX(NH3)5]* with X = I', Cl', NH3, there is a color variation from purple (I'), through pink (CI') to yellow (NH3). Explain this observation. b.) The same transition metal ion can provide a different color to different host lattices. Red ruby consists of an Al203 corundum host structure where Cr3+ dopants occupy octahedral sites surrounded by 02. In green emeralds, however, Cr3+ acts as a dopant of the beryl (Be3Al2(SiO3)6) host, wherein it occupies octahedral sites, surrounded by six silicate ions. With this information, determine whether the silicate anions impose a stronger or weaker ligand field compared to 02. Explain your reasoning.
