Chapter 22, Problem 22.40QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The octahedral crystal field splitting energy of Co(CN)63- is given. The color of a solution of this complex ion is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Transition metals form colored compounds because of the interactions between electrons in d-orbitals and the lone pairs of electrons on ligands. Valence electrons present in metal ion undergo transitions from ground state energy level to excited state energy level by absorption of a photon of electromagnetic radiation.

To determine: The color of a solution of Co(CN)63- ion.
