  • dxz, dyz
  • dxy, dyz, dxz
  • dx2-y2, dz2 (correct)
  • dxy, dz2
  • In a tetrahedral crystal field, the t2 orbitals are at a lower energy level than the e orbitals.

    Match the following d-orbitals with their corresponding energy levels in an octahedral and tetrahedral crystal field:

    <p>dxy, dyz, dxz = Lower energy in octahedral, higher energy in tetrahedral dx2-y2, dz2 = Higher energy in octahedral, lower energy in tetrahedral e orbitals = Lower energy in tetrahedral t2 orbitals = Higher energy in tetrahedral</p> Signup and view all the answers
