Using crystal field theory, draw an electron box energy level diagram for the valence d orbitals on the iron atom in a tetrahedral FeCl, complex. Your diagram should show the relative energy of each orbital, and the number of electrons in each orbital. Note: to make your diagram easier to read, label the d orbitals with just the subscript. For example, label the d 2 orbital with just z. Energy

Give the oxidation state of the metal, number of d electrons, and the number of unpaired electrons predicted for [Co(NH3)6]Cl3.
The energies of the valence d orbitals on the manganese atom in the octahedral [MnF] complex are split according to the electron box level diagram below.

How many (valence) d orbital electrons are present on each of the transition metal ions in the complexes shown below. Ligands and their charges are listed given in your notes or in the "coordination number" question previously given in this quiz. [Nb(NH3)2(H2O)4]+2 [Cd(ox)2Cl2]–4 [Ir(NH3)2(H2O)4]+4
The octahedral structure is not the only possible six-coordinate structure. Other possibilities include a planar hexagonal structure, and a triangular prism structure. In the latter, the ligands are arranged in two parallel triangles, one lying above and the other below the metal atom with their corners aligned in the same directions (the lecture notes has pictures of this geometry). Show that the existence of two and only two isomers of [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ is evidence against both of these structures.
Some octahedral complexes have distorted shapes. Insome, two metal-ligand bonds that are 180° apart are shorter than the other four. In [Cu(NH₃)₆]²⁺, for example, two Cu−N bonds are 207 pm long, and the other four are 262 pm long. (a) Calculate the longest distance between two N atoms in this complex. (b) Calculate the shortest distance between two N atoms.
You have mixed up two solutions. One is a solution of M(H₂O)62+ and the other is M(en)32+. One is green and one is blue. Use crystal field theory to determine which is which.

The size of the crystal field splitting only influences the arrangement of electrons when there is a choice between pairing electrons and filling the higher-energy orbitals. For which d-electron configurations will there be a difference between high- and low-spin configurations in octahedral complexes?
