You will write the three steps that fill the d orbitals of an octahedral complex: decide whether the field is strong, split the electrons between the and sets, and find the CFSE.
The idea. If the complex is low spin and the set fills first, up to six electrons. If not, each of the five orbitals takes one electron before any pairing. .
Your tasks.
is_low_spin(delta, pairing) so that it returns True when the splitting is larger than the pairing energy.fill(d_count, low_spin) so that it returns a pair (t2g, eg), the numbers of electrons in the two sets.cfse(t2g, eg) so that it returns the CFSE in units of .Have you tried it?
Do the tasks in the editor first, and run the checker after each one. Its hints help when a check fails. When you are ready, compare your code with this solution.
