Consider the octahedral crystal fields below:
Cr3+ High-spin Cr2+ Cu2+ Lowspin Co3+
a) determine which metal ions would be expected to undergoJahn-Teller distortion (maybe more than 1 answer)
b) determine which metal ions from part a will be diamagnetic(maybe more than 1 answer)
c) [Cr(NH3)6]3+ is orange and[Cr(NH3)5Cl]3+ is violet. Using acolor wheel with nm values, explain what this observation tells youabout the octahedral splitting of these complexes
