Tutorial 8

The document outlines a tutorial with multiple tasks related to coordination chemistry, including finding ground-state term symbols and spectral bands for [Co(bpy)3]2+ and [Ni(NH3)6]2+, analyzing absorption peaks for [Fe(H2O)6]2+, and comparing molar absorptivity of different cobalt complexes. It also involves calculating LFSE stabilization energy and determining the concentration of [Mn(H2O)6]2+ required for a specific absorbance. The tutorial emphasizes the application of Tanabe Sugano and Orgel diagrams in understanding electronic transitions in coordination complexes.
