Four coordinate nickel complexes can have another geometry other than tetrahedral. Name that geometry, and explain why the absor

ption spectrum you took strongly suggests a tetrahedral geometry, as opposed to the other possible option. Hint: Think about the allowedness of transitions in the two geometries.

Answer:

The other geometry is square planar and this is because the four coordinate complexes forms d⁸ configuration.

Explanation:

(1) The other geometry is square planar

(2) This absorption spectrum (square planar) strongly suggests a tetrahedral geometry because  in the molecular geometry, a central atom is surrounded by constituent atoms, which form the corners of a square on the same plane.

This square planar is as a results of d⁸ electronic configuration and this is common for transition metal complexes with d⁸ configuration.

There are a couple of ways in which you can express the concentration of a solution, and here they are: gram per liter (g/L), molarity (M), parts per million (ppm.), and percents (%). 
As you can see, only M appears in your answers, which means that the correct option should be (2) 3.5 M.

2C4H10(g) +13O2(g) → 8CO2(g) +10H2O(g) Suppose a grill lighter contains 50.0 g of butane. How many grams of butane in the lighte
MatroZZZ [7]
Answer is: mass of butane is D)11.6 g.
m(butane) = 50,0 g.
V(CO₂) = 17,9 L.
n(CO₂) = V(CO₂) ÷ Vm.
n(CO₂) = 17,9 L ÷ 22,4 L/mol.
n(CO₂) = 0,8 mol.
From chemical reaction n(CO₂) : n(C₄H₁₀) = 8 : 2.
n(C₄H₁₀) = 0,8 mol ÷ 4.
n(C₄H₁₀) = 0,2 mol.
m(C₄H₁₀) = n(C₄H₁₀) · M(C₄H₁₀).
m(C₄H₁₀) = 0,2 mol · 58 g/mol.
m(C₄H₁₀) = 11,6 g.
