Chapter 22.7, Problem 22.7E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

[Fe(H2O)6]3+ is pale purple in color. [Fe(CN)6]3 is ruby-red in color. Approximate wavelength of maximum absorption has to  be given for each complex.  Explanation has to be given whether the color shift is in expected direction.

Concept Introduction:

The term Crystal field splitting refers to segregation of d-orbitals in to higher energy orbitals and lower energy orbitals when ligands approaches metal ion to co-ordinate.  Crystal field splitting is said to be larger when the energy gap between higher energy d-orbitals and lower energy d-orbitals is larger.  Crystal field splitting is said to be smaller when the energy gap between higher energy d-orbitals and lower energy d-orbital is smaller.

Spectrochemical series refers to the arrangement of ligands with respect to crystal field splitting they cause in the d-orbitals of a metal ion.  The ligand that causes larger splitting pattern is referred to as stronger ligand.

The ligands are arranged in increasing order of crystal field splitting they produce.

I<Br<S2<SCN<Cl<NO3<N3<F<OH<C2O42<H2O<NCS<CH3CN<py<NH3<en<bipy<phen<NO2<PPh3<CN<CO

The ligand that causes larger crystal field splitting is strong ligand and the ligand that causes smaller splitting is termed as weak ligand.
