Consider a metal ion with the outer electron configuration of d4. In a coordination complex, the number of unpaired electrons in that metal ion depends on the orientation and type of ligands that surround it. Classify each description of a complex by the number of unpaired electrons in the d4 metal ion. Hint: read pages 1061 and 1062 in the 8th edition Silberberg book. 1. square planar strong field [Select] 2. octahedral weak field [Select] < 3. tetrahedral strong field [Select] 4. octahedral strong field [Select] 5. tetrahedral weak field [Select ] 6. square planar weak field [Select]
