2. Explain the following observations by providing an orbital diagram that shows the electron configuration of the d electrons. (a) [Fe(L4)]2+ is diamagnetic while [Fe(L5)]2+ is paramagnetic at 298 K. 'N N N R R L4: R=H L5: R = 'Bu (5 marks) (b) [M04] is deep purple in colour while [M(H20)6]2+ is pale pink (M = Mn). = (4 marks) (c) [M(H20)6]3+, [M(NH3).]3+ and [M(gly)3] (gly = NH2CH2C00-) are blue, orange, and purple in colour (M = Co), respectively.
