Furthermore, since the ligand electrons in tetrahedral symmetry are not oriented directly towards the d-orbitals, the energy splitting will be lower than in the octahedral case." From <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_field_theory" rel="nofollow">here</a>. I hope this is helpful. <br /><br />(Also, I'm a woman, not a sir.
