Crystal field theory explains metal complex color, magnetism, and stability through d-orbital splitting in ligand field.

Steg-för-steg-guide

  1. 1Input metal ion, ligands, geometry
  2. 2Calculate d-orbital splitting energies
  3. 3Predict color and magnetic properties

Lösta exempel

Ingång
[Fe(CN)₆]⁴⁻: strong field, low spin, diamagnetic
Resultat
vs. [Fe(H₂O)₆]²⁺: weak field, high spin, paramagnetic

Vanliga misstag att undvika

  • Confusing high vs. low spin
  • Not applying to correct geometry

Vanliga frågor

Why does color depend on coordination?

Different ligand fields cause different d-orbital splittings; visible light absorption matches energy gaps.
