Questions
On the basis of Crystal Field Theory, write the electronic configuration of d4 ion if Δ0 > P.
Write the electronic configuration of d4 ion if Δ0 > P.

Solution
If Δ0 > P, the electronic configuration of the d4 ion will be \[\ce{t_2g^4eg^0}\] as it is associated with strong field and low spin situations.

Crystal field splitting by various ligands Metal complexes show different colours due to d-d transitions. The complex absorbs light of specific wavelength to promote the electron from t2g to eg level. The colour of the complex is due to the transmitted light, which is complementary of the colour absorbed. The wave number of light absorbed by different complexes of Cr ion are given below:

Answer the following questions:
(a) Out of ligands "A", "B", "C" and "D", which ligand causes maximum crystal field splitting? Why?
