What are `t_(2g)` and `e_(g)` orbitals?

Answer» In a free stransition metal ion, the five d-orbita,ls are degenerate. When it forms a complex, the degeneracy is split. Three d-orbitals having lower energy are called `t_(2g)` orbitals and the remaining two d-orbitals of higher energy are called `e_(g)` orbitals.
