2.) Starting with the octahedral (ML6) crystal field splitting pattern below: A.) Draw the d-orbital splitting for a tetragonally compressed compound (ML6). This is where the ligands along the z-axis are pushed closer to the metal center, and the ligands along the x and y-axis are pulled further from the metal center (10 marks). B.) Continue this trend until the ligands along the x and y axes are completely removed, and show the d-orbital splitting for the resulting linear complex...
4.) Square planar metal complexes (MLA) are an extreme case of tetragonal elongation, where the metal-ligands bonds along the z axis of an octahedral complex are stretched until the ligands are completely removed from the metal complex. Using the octahedral crystal field below as a starting point, show how the orbital splitting changes upon elongation of the M-L bonds along the z-axis until the two axial ligands are removed. Label all orbitals and use dashed guidelines to show how individual...

Using the crystal field theory approach, draw the d-orbital splitting diagram for octahedral [Cu(OH2)6+, properly label each of the orbitals (i.e. dky etc.), and fill in the electrons. Show the changes in energy of all the d-orbitals under the influence of Jahn-Teller distortions resulting in both axial elongation and in axial compression (tetragonal distortions). Using the crystal field theory approach, draw the d-orbital splitting diagram for octahedral [Cu(OH2)6+, properly label each of the orbitals (i.e. dky etc.), and fill in...
3) The d orbital splitting pattern for octahedral complexes has three low energy orbitals described by their symmetry as t2g and two high energy orbitals described as eg. The reason for the difference in energy is that the ligands point towards the eg point group while the t2g orbitals do not point towards the ligands. Please use the Cav point group of a square pyramidal complex to figure out the symmetry of the d orbitals and build a d orbital...
2. a. Draw and show the crystal field splitting of the d orbitals in an octahedral complex, a tetrahedral complex, and in a square planar complex.(clearly label the orbitals) b.

a. Predict the structure of [Cr(OH2)6]2+ - I wrote that the complex will undergo Jahn-Teller distortion, making the octahedral complex become tetragonal (don't know if that's correct) b. Account for the variation in the lattice enthalpy of Mn (2780 kJ/mol), Fe (2926 kJ/mol), Co (2976 kJ/mol), Ni (3060 kJ/mol), and Zn (2985 kJ/mol) flouride given that the metal center in all of the flourides is surrounded by an octahedral array of F-ions. c. Explain the effect on the d-orbital energies...
