The energy level diagram for 3d-orbitals of titanium in
Concept introduction:
In ground state all the five d-orbitals are degenerate and have similar energy but as soon as the ligand approaches to them, the energy levels split.
The difference in energies of all the five d-orbitals is explained on the basis of crystal field theory and its splitting energy.
Actually, the d-orbitals have five energy levels which are degenerate in ground state. But, the energy levels have differently oriented lobes as follows:
The

Hence, it creates set of two types of orbitals; first is orbitals in plane and second is orbitals along axes.
Orbitals in planes give t2 set (
