Question

According to crystal field theory, five d-orbitals of an octahedral complex split to give
(1) Two orbitals with lower energy and three orbitals with higher energy
(2) Three orbitals with lower energy and two orbitals with higher energy
(3) One orbital with lower energy and four orbitals with higher energy
(4) Four orbitals with lower energy and one orbital with higher energy​

Answer 1

Answer:

(3) One orbital with lower energy and four orbitals with higher energy

Answer 2

Answer:

2

becoz dxy,dyz and dxy lies in between the axis to it has less repulsion and stable and has lower enery
