Strong and weak field ligands. The spectrochemical series ranks ligands according the energy difference ΔO between the t 2g and e g orbitals in their octahedral complexes.

2015年9月2日 · When a metal ion having higher charge is interacting with ligand NH3 it acts as a SFL. When the metal ion has lower charge it acts as WFL. EG: $\ce{Co^2+}$ and $\ce{Co^3+}$ In $\ce{Co^2+}$ $\ce{NH3}$ acts as WFL.

Weak field ligands: H 2 O, F −, Cl −, OH −. Strong field ligands: CO, CN −, NH 3, PPh 3. Ligands arranged on the left end of this spectrochemical series are generally regarded as weaker ligands and cannot cause forcible pairing of electrons within the 3d level, and thus form outer orbital octahedral complexes that are high spin.

Are there any factors that make something a stronger field ligand? Solution. The d orbitals that rise in energy in the presence of a ligand can be thought of as forming an antibonding molecular orbital combination with an orbital on the ligand. In addition, there would also be a bonding combination for this interaction.

2017年5月5日 · Instead of asking when is the ligand strong- or weak-field you should be asking whether the complex is high- or low-spin, as there are obviously more factors than the ligand. Ligand X can produce a high-spin complex with metal M whereas it might produce a low-spin complex with N. Do you then call X a strong- or a low-field ligand?

2023年11月15日 · My teacher taught me that VBT is based on the experimental values of magnetic moment, whereas CFT focuses on orbitals splitting in the presence of weak and strong field ligands (WFL and SFL, respectively). Can we explain VBT configuration on …

In today's NEET Chemistry cheat code session we will learn Trick to Identify SFL (Strong field ligand ) & WFL (Weak field ligand) from coordination compounds ...

Spectrochemical series gives the arrangement of ligands in the increasing order of crystal field splitting. Weak field ligands cause less crystal field splitting. They form high spin complexes. Examples include chloride ions, fluoride ions etc. Strong field ligands cause greater crystal field splitting. They form low spin complexes.

Weak field ligands: Those ligands which cause lower splitting of d orbitals i.e., ∆ ° parameter is smaller compared to the energy required for the pairing of electrons are called weak field ligands. Weak field ligands contain halogen, O, and S as donor atoms. e.g. F – , Cl – , Br – , I –, SCN –, C O C 2 O 4 2 -. Theories of Bonding in Complexes.

2023年2月19日 · Other than that, Carbon, Nitrogen and Phosphorus generally act as SFL, while Oxygen, Sulphur and Halogen donors generally act as WFL. Oxalate and Water should be treated as Weak Field Ligands.
