The octahedral crystal field splitting energy, Δoct, of Mn(en)33+ is 290 kJ/mol. What is the color of a solution containing this complex ion? Show all calculations at each step and include units at each step in your calculations.
Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explaining the structure of an atom.
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.
