    Topics To Be Discussed in Tutorial 2 For Section A

    Uploaded by

    Lakshay Garg
    The document outlines topics to be covered in two tutorials on crystal field theory including crystal field splitting patterns for various geometries, electronic configurations of metal ions, factors affecting crystal field splitting, calculation of crystal field stabilization energy, Jahn-Teller distortions, and spinels. It also provides example problems on determining if complexes are high-spin or low-spin, drawing crystal field splitting diagrams, calculating CFSE, predicting distortions and site preferences in spinels, and relating ligand type and color in cobalt complexes.

    Topics to be discussed in Tutorial 2 for Section A Lecture 3 (6th January 2013) Crystal field Theory CF splitting in octahedral, tetrahedral

    and square planar complexes Electronic configurations of d1-d10 metal ions in octahedral and tetrahedral complexes Explanation of low-spin and high-spin complexes Crystal field stabilization energy and its calculation for different electronic configurations Spectrochemical series of ligands Factors affecting crystal field splitting When to expect tetrahedral and square planar geometries

    Problems: 1. The ion [Fe(CN)6]3- has one unpaired electron, whereas [Fe(NCS)6]3- has five unpaired electrons. From these results what can be concluded about whether each complex is high-spin or low-spin? 2. Draw the crystal field splitting of d orbitals for the following complexes and indicate the electronic configuration. Calculate CFSE in each case. i) [VCl6]3ii) [Ru(bipy)3]3+ iii) [PtBr6]2iv) [Ti(en)3]2+ Lecture 4 (8th January 2013) Distortions in octahedral Complexes Jahn-Teller Effect Distortions in d9 and d1 complexes Expected distortions in low-spin and high-spin complexes based on d-orbital configuration Thermodynamic aspects of CFSE Lattice Energy, Enthalpy of Hydration Spinels Site preference based on CFSE Color of complexes and selection rules

    Problems: 3. Predict the structure of the following spinels i) Fe3O4 ii) FeCr2O4 4. Predict the distortions in [Cr(H2O)6]2+ and [Co(NH3)]2+ ions. 5. You have two solutions, one that is orange, and another that is blue. You know that both solutions are made up of a cobalt complex; however one has chloride ions as ligands, while the other has ammonia ligands. Which solution would you expect to be orange?
