The Crystal Field Theory (CFT) of coordination compounds is based on the effect of different crystal fields (provided by the ligands taken as point charges) on the degeneracy of d-orbital energies of the central metal atom/ion. The splitting of the d-orbitals provides different electronic arrangements in strong and weak crystal fields. In tetrahedral coordination entity formation, the d-orbital splitting is smaller as compared to the octahedral entity.
On the basis of CFT, explain why [Ti(H$_2$O)$_6$]Cl$_3$ complex is coloured? What happens on heating the complex [Ti(H$_2$O)$_6$]Cl$_3$? Give reason.
