Solution

CFT:

ligands are treated as point charges interaction, but ligands & metal are purely electrostatic.

Metal has dorbital = dxy, dxz, dyz, dx2, dy2, dz2

When ligands approach metal, the degeneracy of metal is disturbed.

spit int 2 energy levels = t2g & eg
dxy, dxz, dxz

[Cr(en)3]+3 = en = ethylene diamine bidentate ligand

n = 3

`sqrt(n(n+2)) = sqrt(3(3+2))`

`sqrt15`

= 3.83 B.M

Paramagnetic :

d - d transition = [Cr(en)3]+3 = coloured property
