<u>Answer:</u> The chemical formula for this complex is or
<u>Explanation:</u>
2,2'-Bypridine is a bidentate chelating ligand which forms complex with many transition metals. Its chemical formula is
Bidentate ligands are the ligands which donate two pairs of electrons to the metal atom.
This complex contains two spheres: Primary sphere and secondary sphere
Primary sphere is the sphere which satisfies the primary valency of the metal and the coordination sphere satisfies the secondary valency of the metal known as secondary sphere.
Chlorine is satisfying the primary valency of the metal and bipyridyl is satisfying the secondary valency of the metal.
The chemical formula for this complex is or

Answer:
- The molarity of the student's sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0219 M
Explanation:
<u>1) Chemical reaction.</u>
a) Kind of reaction: neutralization
b) General form: acid + base → salt + water
c) Word equation:
- sodium hydroxide + oxalic acid → sodium oxalate + water
d) Chemical equation:
- NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + H₂O
b) Balanced chemical equation:
- 2NaOH + H₂C₂O₄ → Na₂C₂O₄ + 2H₂O
<u>2) Mole ratio</u>
- 2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄ :1 mol Na₂C₂O₄ : 2 mol H₂O
<u>3) Starting amount of oxalic acid</u>
- mass = 28 mg = 0.028 g
- molar mass = 90.03 g/mol
- Convert mass in grams to number of moles, n:
n = mass in grams / molar mass = 0.028 g / 90.03 g/mol = 0.000311 mol
<u>4) Titration</u>
- Volume of base: 28.4 mL = 0.0248 liter
- Concentration of base: x (unknwon)
- Number of moles of acid: 2.52 mol (calculated above)
- Proportion using the theoretical mole ratio (2mol Na OH : 1 mol H₂C₂O₄)
That means that there are 0.000622 moles of NaOH (solute)
<u>5) Molarity of NaOH solution</u>
- M = n / V (liter) = 0.000622 mol / 0.0284 liter = 0.0219 M
That is the correct number using <em>three signficant figures</em>, such as the starting data are reported.
