- An aqueous solution of [Rh(C2O4)3]3− is yellow. Predict the approximate wavelength and predominant color of light absorbed by the complex.arrow_forwardFor 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_forwardFour 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_forward
- How many geometric isomers are possible for the square-planar complex ion [Pt(NH3)(CN)Cl2)?arrow_forwardWhat types of isomers are possible for the following compounds or complex ions?
