The transition metals form a class of compounds called metal carbonyls, an example of which is the tetrahedral complex Ni(CO)4. Given the following thermodynamic data (at 298 K): (a) Calculate the equilibrium constant for the formation of Ni(CO)4(g) from nickel metal and CO gas. (b) Is the reaction of Ni(s) and CO(g) product- or reactant-favored at equilibrium? (c) Is the reaction more or less product-favored at higher temperatures? How could this reaction be used in the purification of nickel metal?
Chelating ligands often form more stable complex ions than the corresponding monodentate ligands with the same donor atoms. For example, Ni2+(aq)+6NH3(aq)Ni(NH3)62+(aq)K=3.2108Ni2+(aq)+3en(aq)Ni(en)32+(aq)K=1.61018Ni2+(aq)+penten(aq)Ni(penten)2+(aq)K=2.01019 where en is ethylenediamine and penten is This increased stability is called the chelate effect. Based on bond energies, would you expect the enthalpy changes for the above reactions to be very different? What is the order (from least favorable to most favorable) of the entropy changes for the above reactions? How do the values of the formation constants correlate with S? How can this be used to explain the chelate effect?
The complex ion NiCL42 has two unpaired electrons, whereas Ni(CN)42 is diamagnetic. Propose structures for these two complex ions.
For a tetrahedral complex of a metal in the first transition series, which of the following statements concerning energies of the 3d orbitals is correct? (a) The five d orbitals have the same energy. (b) The dx2y2 and dz2orbitals are higher in energy than the dxz, dyz and dxy orbitals. (c) The dxz, dyz and dxy orbitals are higher in energy than the dx2y2and dz2orbitals.
Ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA4 ) is used as a complexing agent in chemical analysis with the structure shown in Fig. 21.7. Solutions of EDTA4 are used to treat heavy metal poisoning by removing the heavy metal in the form of a soluble complex ion. The complex ion virtually prevents the heavy metal ions from reacting with biochemical systems. The reaction of EDTA4 with Pb2+ is Pb2+(aq) + EDTA4(aq) iPbEDTA2(aq) K = 1.1 1018 Consider a solution with 0.010 mol of Pb(NO3)? added to 1.0 L of an aqueous solution buffered at pH = 13.00 and containing 0.050 M Na1EDTA. Does Pb(OH)2 precipitate from this solution? [Ksp for Pb(OH)2 = 1.2 1015.
