Transitions

Question 1

xharge transfer

Answer 1

400 nm or below, metal orbital to ligand - m oxidized and ligand reduced, or ligand to metal - opposite

Question 2

d-d transitions

Question 3

tanabe sugano

Answer 3

high spin left, low spin right
ONLY octahedrak and tetrahedral complexes
all transitions are laporte forbidden but not necessarily spin forbidden
tetrahedral use reverse diagram

Question 4

solve T-S diagrams

Answer 4

2 peaks: convert to wavenumbers (1/wavelength * 10^-7), v1 and v2
v2/v1 = ratio for v2, or v1/v2
find where lines’x values are ratio
v2/y2= B = v1/y1
