Which mechanism influences electron distribution when ligand field splitting occurs?

💡 Explanation

Crystal field stabilization energy (CFSE) affects electron distribution in d-orbitals because ligand field splitting causes some orbitals to be lower in energy; therefore, electrons preferentially occupy these orbitals to minimize overall energy rather than occupy higher-energy orbitals.
