### Step-by-Step Text Solution **Step 1: Draw the Splitting of d-Orbitals in an Octahedral Crystal Field** In an octahedral crystal field, the five d-orbitals (dxy, dyz, dzx, dx²-y², dz²) split into two sets due to the presence of ligands around the central metal ion. The d-orbitals are split into: - **t2g Orbitals**: These are lower in energy and consist of dxy, dyz, and dzx. - **eg Orbitals**: These are higher in energy and consist of dx²-y² and dz². ...
