What is Crystal Field Theory in Coordination Compounds about?

1. Crystal field theory explains the splitting of d-orbital energies when a transition metal ion is placed in a ligand field. The ligands exert electrostatic repulsion on the d-electrons, raising or lowering their energies. 2. In an octahedral complex, the dx2-y2 and dz2 orbitals have their energies raised the most by the six ligands along the axes. The dxy, dxz, and dyz orbitals have their energies lowered. 3. Transition metal complexes can be paramagnetic if they have unpaired d-electrons, or diamagne
