Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The rules of naming coordination compounds are to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The central metal atom forms compounds with other ions or neutral molecules through coordinate bonds, which are called coordination compounds.
The ligands are named first in alphabetical order and metal ion last in a complex ion.
The name of anionic ligand ends with letter “o.”
The neutral ligands are called by the name of the molecule except
Prefixes di, tri, tetra, penta, and hexa are used, to specify the number of ligands when two or more of same ligands are present.
The oxidation number of the metal is written after the name of the metal in roman numerals.
If the complex is an anion, its name ends with ‘-ate’.
There are certain rules for naming prefixes.

- Is the correct name of this complex "trichloroethyltitanium(IV)"? If not, what should be?arrow_forwardWhat is the percent yeild of nickel(II) coordination? [Ni(H2O)6]Cl2 used = 5.736 g [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 produced = 5.410 garrow_forwardQuestion: Although both nitrogen and phosphorous take place in Group VA, in complex formation ammonia acts as sigma-donor while PR3 is both sigma–donor and pi-acceptor. In the light of this explanation, show the sigma and pi interactions in [Co(PR3)6]2+ according to MO theory. What makes PR3 a different ligand than ammonia? Do I need to replace t2g orbitals in my diagram? How can I show PR3 ligands using d orbitals?arrow_forward
- Question: How does the coordination geometry of a metal center in a bioinorganic system affect its reactivity and function?arrow_forwardHeating 3.0 mol of a coordination compound gives 1.5 mol of ammonia, 3.0 mol of water 1.5 mol of HCl and 1.5 mol of (NH4)3[Ir2Cl9]. Write the formula of the original (six-coordinate) coordination compound and name it (please show full work)arrow_forwardInformation: LFSE for octahedral complexes of d7 ions: LFSE = D(0.4 nt2g - 0.6 neg)-P If the energy of Δ for the Ni(III) complex [Ni(9-aneN3)2]3+ is 23,200 cm-1, and the spin pairing energy P is 11,200 cm-1, what is the LFSE (Ligand field stabilization energy) for the complex what would be expected about the structure of the complex: a) 10,560 cm-1 b) 30,560 cm-1 c) 20160 cm-1 d) 26880 cm-1 9-ane-n3arrow_forward
- Ligands like BAL and enterobactin are important in medical treatments for heavy metal poisoning. However, chelation therapies can disrupt the normal concentration of ions in the body, leading to serious side effects, so researchers are searching for new chelation drugs. One drug that has been developed is dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA), as shown. Identify which atoms in this molecule could act as donor atoms.arrow_forwardWhat is ligandarrow_forwardinorganic lab, 2. Sketch the structure for the two cobalt amine complexes. How does the conductivity measurement help you in deciding whether chloride ions are bonded to cobalt ion or not?arrow_forward
