Explanation:

Crystal field theory (CFT) describes the breaking of degeneracies of electron orbital states, usually d or f orbitals, due to a static electric field produced by a surrounding charge distribution (anion neighbors). This theory has been used to describe various spectroscopies of transition metal coordination complexes, in particular optical spectra (colors).

The basis of the model is the interaction of d-orbitals of a central atom with ligands, which are considered as point charges. According to CFT, the attraction between the central metal and ligands in a complex is purely electrostatic.
