[TiGH20).]Ch is violet in color, however TICI is white. Explain Gmar Ans: Ti? is 3d! ion. In ITH2O)6ICh there are six water molecules in a octahedral Configuration is: tg' 4°. A single absorption peak is possible for this complex corresponding {0 the tag? ey! & tap! transition (and 4 = 20,300 cm"). (2 marks). However, in TiCl; the d- orbitals are degenerate (no splitting) due to the lack of coordination sphere, and no d-d transition is possible (1 mark). | Briefly, in (Ti(E2O)ICl, presence of octahedral hhexaquo ligand field splits the d-orbitas Gegeneracy is lost). So a d-d transition is Possible. However in TiCl; there is no octahedral ~~ ligand field present, 2. Pt prefers octahedral coordination while P2* mostly adopts square planar geometry. Why? (3 mark: Ans: Pt** is a dion, d-orbital diagram is tzp®, The CFSEye is: -2.4 ‘Ao While the CFSE,» is -2.24 o The preference energy for octahedron coordination (OSPE) (compared to square planar Coordination) is -0.16 Ay. Because of this Pt!* Prefers octahedral environment, PO's ad® ion, CFSE =-1.2 A, CFSEy = -2.44 Ay, Notice that in this case, the crystal field Stabilization (in terms of A.) is much greater for square planar coordination than for octahedral coordination! In fact, the preference energy (compared to octahedral coordination) for square Planar coordination of a d* metal ion is -1.24 A,. So PE prefers ‘Square planar geometry, Te both (Pt & P2*) the answers are Correct award three marks. If one answer is correct give only one mark. 3.

Whe will be the ligand effect on outermost s- and p-orbitals? +) ‘A2. The ligands approaching to the metal ion have different electrostatic interactions with d-orbitals, For example, axial orbitals (d,2-,2 & d,2 shown below) experience the greater repulsion as compared to non axial orbitals (d,,, d,, and d,. shown below) due to their presence in the path of the approaching ligands. Therefore, d,2-,2 and d,2 orbitals acquire higher energy level (0.6 times) from the barycenter. Conversely, non axials orbitals are directed in space between the path of the approaching ligands and experience less electrostatic repulsion from approaching ligands, resulting in lowering of energy level (0.4 times) from the barycenter. By convention, the axial orbitals (02,7 & 4) are known as the ey orbitals and the non axial orbitals (dy, dye & dy.) known as the te, orbitals in an octahedral complex. (Diagram as in Q1.) Due to spherical shape of s-orbitals, the outermost s-orbital experience same electrostatic interaction from the approaching ligands. However, its energy is increased in the hypothetical state and remains degenerate in all ligand fields. Similarly, p, py and P; orbitals are axially oriented. The ligands approaching to the metal ion have same electrostatic interaction with all axial orbitals. Therefore, the orbitals are raised in energy and remain degenerate. My (Spatial arrangement of the five d-orbitals) (Marks distribution- 1 for diag. & 2 for correct explanation) 03. Explain why the crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) of [Co(H;O)q)"' is larger than [Co(Hy)ef"'? @ 3. A metal ion in higher oxidation state attracts ligands closer than its low oxidation states due to increasing nuclear charge and poor shielding, resulting in larger splitting and hence high crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE). e.g., In [Co(H.O)é[", cobalt has +3 oxidation state while in [Co(H:0):]”, +2 oxidation state. Therefore, [Co(H,0).)** gives higher CFSE than [Co(H,0)<]”". Q4. Complexes with d-electronic configuration prefer to give high spin (HS) coordination compounds.
