Which of the following statements is true? Group of answer choices ∆oct is proportional to the crystal field strength of the metal ion. There are 3 eg orbitals. All five d orbitals increase their energy levels the same amount for a metal surrounded by ligands in an octahedral crystal field. Because the ligands approach the metal ion from different directions, they affect different d orbitals in different ways. The t2g orbitals are higher in energy than the eg orbitals.
