A 3.03-g petroleum specimen was decomposed by wet ashing and subsequently diluted to 500 mL in a volumetric flask. Cobalt was determined by treating 25.00-mL aliquots of this diluted solution as follows: Assume that the Co(II)-ligand chelate obeys Beer’s law, and calculate the percentage of cobalt in the original sample.
Give the coordination numbers and write the formulas for each of the following, including all isomers where appropriate: (a) tetrahydroxozincate(ll) ion (tetrahedral). (b) hexacyanopalladate(IV) ion.

The octahedral structure is not the only possible sixcoordinate structure. Other possibilities include a planarhexagonal structure and a triangular prism structure. Inthe latter, the ligands are arranged in two parallel triangles, one lying above the metal atom and the other belowthe metal atom with its corners directly in line with thecorners of the first triangle. Show that the existence of twoand only two isomers of [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ is evidenceagainst both of these possible structures.
