What is the correct crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) for a configuration in an octahedral field with strong field ligands?
- A.-1.6 \Delta_o + PCorrect answer
- B.-0.6 \Delta_o + P
- C.-1.2 \Delta_o
- D.-0.4 \Delta_o + P
Solution
For a strong field ligand, pairing energy is less than (). Thus, all 4 electrons pair up in the orbitals. CFSE = .
