Question:

Suppose that a transition-metal ion was in a lattice in which it was in contact with just two nearby anions, located on opposite sides of the metal. Diagram the splitting of the metal dorbitals that would result from such a crystal field. Assuming a strong field, how many unpaired electrons would you expect for a metal ion with six d electrons? (Hint: Consider the linear axis to be the z-axis)
