Crystal Field Theory: Square Planar Complexes

Description

This lecture covers the rest of crystal field theory, focusing on the splitting diagrams for square planar complexes and the spectrochemical series. The instructor discusses the preference for square planar complexes over other configurations, the impact of ligands on the size of the complexes, and the influence of oxidation state on the complexes' size. The spectrochemical series is explored, highlighting the variations among transition metals and the effect of ligands on the complexes' size.
