The oxidation state of Cr in [Cr(NH3)4Cl2]+ is
-
Solution
Oxidation state of Cr in [Cr(NH3)4Cl2]+.
Let it be x, 1× x+ 4 × 0 + 2 × (–1) = 1 Therefore x=3.
Which does not give a precipitate with AgNO3 solution ?
-
Solution
In [Co(NH3)3Cl3],all chlorine atoms are inside the co-ordination sphere so they will not ionise and this com-pound will not give precipitate with AgNO3.
In the coordination compound, K4[Ni(CN)4], the oxidationstate of nickel is
-
Solution
Let the O. No. of Ni in K4[Ni(CN)4] be = x then
4 (+1) + x + (–1) × 4 =0 ⇒ 4 + x– 4 = 0
x = 0
According to IUPAC nomenclature sodium nitro prusside is named as
-
Solution
IUPAC name of sodium nitroprusside Na2[Fe(CN)5NO]is sodium pentacyanonitrosylferrate (III) because in it NO is neutral ligand. Hence
2 × O.N. of Na + O.N. of Fe + 5×O.N. of CN
1 × O.N. of NO = 0
2 × (+1) + O.N. of Fe +5 ×(–1) + 1 × 0 = 0
O.N. of Fe = 5 – 2 = +3, Hence ferrate (III)
The hypothetical complex chlorodiaquatriamminecobalt (III)chloride can be represented as
-
Solution
Chlorodiaquatriamminecobalt (III) chloride is [CoCl(NH3)3(H2O2)]Cl2
The geometry of Ni(CO)4 and Ni(PPh3)2Cl2 are:
-
Solution
Both are tetrahedral. CO is a strong ligand and P(Ph3)is a weak ligend.So, CO pair up electrons while P(PH3)do not pair up. Oxidation state of Ni is zero in carboxyl compound which in other Ni has + 2 oxidation state.
Shape is tetrahedral.
Which of the following is not an organometallic compound?
-
Solution
Sodium ethoxide is not an organometallic compound as in this compound carbon is not directly attached withmetal.
The formula for the complex, dichlorobis (urea) copper (II) is
-
Solution
[CuCl2{(O = C(NH2)2}2]
K3[Al(C2O4)]4 is called
-
Solution
IUPAC name is Potassium trioxalatoaluminate (III).
Which one of the following shows maximum value of paramagnetic behaviour :
-
Solution
CN– is a strong ligand so it forces the electrons to pairup.
In Sc3+, no electron is there in d orbital, in Cr3+ one electron is unpaired. In Fe3+ also one electron is unpaired, Co3+ has no unpaired electrons. As both Cr3+ and Fe3+ contain one electron in unpaired state so both may be paramagnetic. But as we know Fe has moremagnetic properly. Fe3+ will be more paramagnetic. Sooption (c) is correct.
