Abstract The forming principle of metal complex color is a major difficulty in inorganic chemistry teaching at present. Based on the deep learning theory and taking nickel chloride hexahydrate as an example, a teaching software of metal complex color developing principle is developed in this paper. This software introduces the teaching with macroscopic problems, creates the inquiry situation, shows the structure of metal complexes, the reason of d-orbital splitting, and the principle of color rendering of metal complexes. The software can help students to recognize the color rendering principle from the structure of metal complexes, expand their horizons, and achieve the goal of deep learning.
