Crystal Field Splitting in Octahedral Complexes

Define crystal field splitting energy ?

The splitting diagram for square planar complexes is more complex than for octahedral and tetrahedral complexes and is shown below with the relative energies of each orbital. Which of the following set of de^(-) have same crystal field stabilisation energy value for tetrahedral complex neglecting pairing energy (P) : (P) d^(1), d^(6)" "(Q) d^(2), d^(7) (R ) d^(3), d^(8)" "(S) d^(4), d^(9) (T) d^(5), d^(10)

STATEMENT-1: Tetrahedral complexes are always high spin complexes . STATEMENT-2: Crystal field splitting energy in tetrahedral complexes is 2/3 of the Delta_(0) (crystal field splitting energy in octahedral complexes). STATEMENT-3: Tetrahedral complex [MABCD]^(pm n) is optically active .

The crystl field splitting energy for octahedral complex (Delta_(0)) and that for tetrahedral complex (Delta_(1)) rae related as :
