Concept explainers
- a)
Interpretation: The given complex ion
Concept Introduction:
Lewis acid: The species which accepts the lone pair of electrons.
Lewis base: The species which donates lone pair of electrons.
Donor atom: The neutral molecule or the negatively charged species which donates pair of electrons is known as Donor atom.
Coordinate covalent bonds: A covalent bond in which the Ligand donates both electrons to the metal ion to construct a bonding interaction known as coordinate covalent bond.
To Identify: The given complex ion

- For each d electron configuration, state the number of unpaired electrons expected in octahedral complexes. Give an example complex for each case. (Two answers are possible for some of these cases.) (a) d2 (b) d4 (c) d6 (d) d8arrow_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_forward
