During bond formation, d orbitals split up, this splitting is called as_?
Correct answer: C. D-d splitting
- A. D-d transition
- B. Electronic splitting
- C. D-d splitting
- D. S-d transition
Explanation
The splitting of d orbital during bond formation is called d-d splitting whereas the movement of an electron from one d orbital at higher energy d orbital is called d-d transition.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
