Crystal Field Theory

This chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into crystal field theory. It explains how to draw the crystal field splitting diagram of transition metal complex ions using weak field ligands and strong field ligands. It explains the difference between high spin and low spin diagrams and how to determine the magnetic properties of complex ions.
