Question
In a coordination entity, the electronic configuration of the central metal ion is t2g3 eg1
Is the coordination compound a high spin or low spin complex?
Solution
As the fourth electron enters one of the eg orbitals giving the configuration t2g3 eg1, which indicates ∆o < P hence forms high spin complex.
