Using the angular overlap model, determine the energies of the d orbitals of the metal for each of the following geometries, first for ligands that act as s donors only and second for ligands that act as both s donors and π acceptors.

Angular overlap energy-level diagrams are required for each possibility.

a. linear ML2

b. trigonal-planar ML3

c. square-pyramidal ML5

d. trigonal-bipyramidal ML5

e. cubic ML8 (Hint: A cube is two superimposed tetrahedra.)
