Crystal field theory: splitting, CFSE, spectrochemical series 27

In an octahedral complex of a d^5 metal ion with weak-field ligands (high spin), the electronic configuration ...
Assume H2O is a weak-field ligand here. The number of unpaired electrons in [Fe(H2O)6]^2+ is
Which of the following ligands is the strongest field ligand (largest Delta_o)?
Using CFSE = (-0.4 n_t_2g + 0.6 n_e_g)Delta_o and ignoring pairing energy, the CFSE of an octahedral d^3 ion i...
For the same metal ion and ligands, the tetrahedral crystal field splitting Delta_t is related to the octahedr...
Use mu = sqrtn(n+2) BM. Cyanide is a strong-field ligand, so [Fe(CN)6]^3- is low spin. Its spin-only magnetic ...
Treat H2O as a weak-field ligand and ignore pairing energy. The CFSE of [Mn(H2O)6]^2+, in units of Delta_o, is
Take [Co(NH3)6]^3+ to be low spin and ignore pairing energy. Its CFSE in units of Delta_o is
