Ligand Field Theory and the Jahn-Teller Effect

We've learned about a number of theories regarding chemical bonding, like VSEPR Theory, Molecular Orbital Theory, and Crystal Field Theory. Now let's look at Ligand Field Theory, which is sort of an extension of CFT. We will also examine the Jahn-Teller Effect, or Jahn-Teller Distortion, which is a phenomenon that impacts the geometry of certain complexes.
