The discussion focuses on describing the d-orbital splitting of the [Cr(H2O)6]3+ complex using the CASSCF method. Participants explore the theoretical framework of CASSCF and its application to transition metal complexes. Key points include the importance of considering ligand field theory and the role of water as a ligand in influencing the splitting pattern. The conversation also touches on computational approaches and the necessity of accurate basis sets for reliable results. Overall, the thread emphasizes the relevance of CASSCF in understanding electronic structure in coordination chemistry.

Thread 'How to make Sodium Chlorate by Electrolysis of salt water?'
I have a power supply for electrolysis of salt water brine, variable 3v to 6v up to 30 amps. Cathode is stainless steel, anode is carbon rods. Carbon rod surface area 42" sq. the Stainless steel cathode should be 21" sq. Salt is pure 100% salt dissolved into distilled water. I have been making saturated salt wrong. Today I learn saturated salt is, dissolve pure salt into 150°f water cool to 100°f pour into the 2 gallon brine tank. I find conflicting information about brine tank...
