What is the t2g in the octahegral system?

Back (Answer)

non-bonding

#4
Front (Question)

How does a strong ligand effect the energy gap?

Back (Answer)

Increases energy

#5
Front (Question)

How does a weak ligand effect the energy gap?

Back (Answer)

Decreases energy

#6
Front (Question)

What part of the electromagnetic spectrum does delta octahedral span?

Back (Answer)

The visible spectrum (Good ole ROYGBIV)

#7
Front (Question)

What color is representitive of low energy and long wavelength?

Back (Answer)

Red

#8
Front (Question)

What color is representitive of high energy and short wavelength?

Back (Answer)

Blue

#9
Front (Question)

Feel free to use a color wheel for this one, but if I absorb green what color am I emitting?

Back (Answer)

Red

#10
Front (Question)

What does a higher n value relate to in the d orbital?

Back (Answer)

Larger splitting

#11
Front (Question)

What does larger oxidation lead to?

Back (Answer)

Larger splitting

#12
Front (Question)

What is meant by forbidden?

Back (Answer)

Less probably. It can still happen, just very unlikely

#13
Front (Question)

Why is Mn in high spin a lower energy state?

Back (Answer)

Half-filling effect and Hund’s rule

#14
Front (Question)

What does fewer ligands mean?

Back (Answer)

Less overlap with d-orbital

#15
Front (Question)

Do tetrahedral complexes have lower or higher splitting?

Back (Answer)

Lower splitting due to number of ligands

#16
Front (Question)

In general, on the very right side of the periodic table in forms of “groups” list the weakest field splitting to strongest.

Back (Answer)

Halogens<Oxygen<Nitrogen<Carbon

#17
Front (Question)

What does high spin do to bond length?

Back (Answer)

Increases bond length
