- Four different octahedral chromium coordination compounds exist that all have the same oxidation state for chromium and have H2O and Cl as the ligands and counterions. When 1 mole of each of the four compounds is dissolved in water, how many moles of silver chloride will precipitate upon addition of excess AgNO3?arrow_forwardTwo different compounds are known with the formula Pd(py)2Cl2, but there is only one compound with the formula Zn(py)2Cl2. The symbol py is for pyridine, a mono-dentate ligand. Explain the differences in the Pd and Zncompounds.arrow_forwardIs it possible to have a paramagnetic d4-tetrahedral complex ion? Explain.arrow_forward
- Carbon monoxide, CO, is an important ligand in coordinationchemistry. When CO is reacted with nickel metal,the product is [Ni(CO)4], which is a toxic, pale yellow liquid.(a) What is the oxidation number for nickel in thiscompound? (b) Given that [Ni(CO)4] is a diamagneticmolecule with a tetrahedral geometry, what is the electronconfiguration of nickel in this compound? (c) Write thename for [Ni(CO)4] using the nomenclature rules for coordinationcompounds.arrow_forwardThe coordination complex [Cr(CO)6] forms colorless, diamagnetic crystals that melt at 90 °C. Given that [Cr(CO)6] is diamagnetic, what is the electron configuration of chromium in this compound?arrow_forward[Cr(H₂O)₆]²⁺ is violet. Another CrL₆ complex is green.Can ligand L be CN⁻? Can it be Cl⁻? Explain.arrow_forward
