Which of the following statements about the Crystal Field Theory is false? A. Diamagnetic metal ions cannot contain an odd number of electrons. B. The KAKE values of the low and high spin d8 complexes in the octahedral domain are the same. C. Low-spin complexes contain strong domain ligands. D. Low-spin complexes may be paramagnetic. E. In the octahedral field, first the t2 orbitals of the metal ion and then the e orbitals are filled.
Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.
