Chapter 19, Problem 48E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Thepossibility of formation of octahedral complex ion with same d-orbital splitting diagram for either high spin or low spin for ${\text{V}}^{\text{3+}}$ ion needs to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Crystal field theory is the theory given to explain the bonding in the coordination complexes. As ligand approaches towards the metal ion, the d-orbital of metal ion divide according to the energy of metal ion. On the basis of energy and degeneracy, the d-orbital can be classified as ${\text{t}}_{\text{2g}}$ and ${\text{e}}_{\text{g}}$ orbitals. The electrons will fill according to their energy levels.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The possibility of formation of octahedral complex ion with same d-orbital splitting diagram for either high spin or low spin for ${\text{Ni}}^{\text{2+}}$ ion needs to be determined.
