The coordination complex [Cr(CO)6] forms colorless,diamagnetic crystals that melt at 90 °C. (a) What is theoxidation number of chromium in this compound?(b) Given that [Cr(CO)6] is diamagnetic, what is theelectron configuration of chromium in this compound?(c) Given that [Cr(CO)6] is colorless, would you expectCO to be a weak-field or strong-field ligand? (d) Write thename for [Cr(CO)6] using the nomenclature rules for coordinationcompounds.
Why are K3[Cr(C2O4)3]*3H2O and K3[Fe(C2O4)3]*3H2O colored, whereas K3[Al(C2O4)3]*3H2O is colorless?
Aqueous solutions of [Mn(H2O)6]2+ are faint pink, so much so that they appear to be colorless, which is in contrast to other coordination complexes that we have seen to this point in the course.
a) Please explain why this solution is colorless.
b) If the water ligands were changed to bipyridine (bpy) ligands and you had [Mn(bpy)3]2+, would the solution still be colorless? What changes, if any, would you expect to see in the visible spectrum? If the complex would be expected to have absorptions, please note now many.
