A complex ion has been observed which starts with a violet color with six aqua ligands attached. It goes through a series of color changes until six cyano ligands have attached in place of the aqua ligands. The second complex ion [Ir(CN)6] -4 absorbs at 420 nm. -4 A. Calculate the crystal field splitting energy in J/mole for the [Ir(CN)6] complex ion. (a)
