5. (15 points) Sketch the d orbital splitting diagrams for octahedral, tetrahedral, and square planar geometry. Use the d orbital diagrams for the metal ions below to answer the following questions. a. How many unpaired electrons would an Fell) ion have in a tetrahedral ligand field? b. How many unpaired electrons would an Mn(II)ion have in an octahedral ligand field? C. What would be the ligand field stabilization energy (in terms of A) of a Cu(II)ion in a tetrahedral field? d. What would be the ligand field stabilization energy (in terms of A.) of a Cr(III) ion in an octahedral field? e. Would you expect a four-coordinate Pd(1) ion to take tetrahedral or square planar geometry? Explain your reasoning. When might it take the other geometry instead?
