Splitting of d-Orbitals

Complex ions consist of a metal ion surrounded by anions or molecules known as ligands. Unlike most ... the middle is said to behave like a Lewis acid, which accepts pairs of electrons. The ligands make complex ions non-degenerate because the ligands repel the d-orbitals near them, causing those only t ... bitals near them, causing those only those orbitals to increase in energy.
