d electron in a sentence

Examples

1. In the case of iron, the d 6 excited state will further split in energy due to d-d electron repulsion ( Figure 2c ).
2. In this instance the group 12 elements are treated as a special case of transition metal in which the d electrons are not ordinarily involved in chemical bonding.
3. Other factors such as p-d electron repulsion and spin-orbit coupling of the 2p and 3d electrons must also be considered to fully simulate the data.
4. To understand the reactivity of transition metals, it is essential to understand the concept of d electron configuration as well as high-spin and low-spin configuration.
5. Each of the ten possible d electron counts has an associated Tanabe Sugano diagram describing gradations of possible ligand field environments a metal center could experience in an octahedral geometry.
6. The final description of the valence is highly dependent on the complex's geometry, in turn highly dependent on the d electron count and character of the associated ligands.
7. The third orbit may hold an extra 10 d electrons, but these positions are not filled until a few more orbitals from the next level are filled ( filling the n = 3 d orbitals produces the 10 transition elements ).
8. The 2007 report of mercury ( IV ) fluoride ( HgF 4 ), a compound in which mercury would use its d electrons for bonding, has prompted some commentators to suggest that mercury can be regarded as a transition metal.
9. However, though the group 3 elements show few of the characteristic chemical properties of the transition metals, they do show some of their characteristic physical properties ( on account of the presence in each atom of a single d electron ).
10. Crystal field theory describes a number of physical phenomena well but does not describe bonding nor offer an explanation for why " n " s electrons are ionized before ( " n "  " 1 ) d electrons.
