Octahedral complexes valence shell electron pair repulsion

The molecular geometry of a complex depends on the coordination number, which is the number of ligand atoms bonded to the metal. The most common coordination number is 6, and almost all metal complexes with coordination number 6 adopt octahedral geometry. This preferred geometry can be traced to the valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) model Introduced In Chapter 9. The ligands space themselves around the metal as far apart as possible, to minimize electron-electron repulsion. [Pg.1438]
