in octa hedral complex ligands approach the centralion through coordinate axes so electrons present in orbitalswhich are present on the co ordinate axes will experience morerepulsion from the ligandsso among five dorbitals two orbitals designated bydx2y2anddz2 orbitals present along the axes they arecalled as eg orbitalsanother three orbitals dxy dyzand dxzare present in between the axes theyare called as t2g orbitalsso in octa hedral complex eg orbitals    See Answer
