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.

A 25.0 ml sample of an unknown monoprotic acid was titrated with 0.12 m naoh. the student added 31.6 ml of naoh and went past th

The procedure, which can be used to determine more accurately the concentration of the unknown acid is TO BACK-TITRATE WITH ADDITIONAL HYDROCHLORIC ACID TO NEUTRALIZE THE ADDITIONAL SODIUM HYDROXIDE THAT WAS ADDED.
Monoprotic acids are acids that can donate only one proton per each molecule and they have only one equivalence point. Examples of monoprotic acids are HCI, HNO3 and CH3COOH.
The back titration method is typically used when one needs to determine the concentration of an analyte provided there is a known molar concentration of excess reactants. 
From the information given in the question above, we are told that excess NaOH was added. To correct this mistake, the right thing to do is to use additional HCl to carry out back titration, taking note of the quantity of acid that will be needed to neutralize the excess NaOH.

How many atoms of carbon are found in a 30.0 gram sample of the element?
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

1.50 × 10²⁴ atoms C

Explanation:

Step 1: Define

Molar mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

Avagadro's Number: 6.02 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

Step 2: Use Dimensional Analysis

30.0 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} C(\frac{1 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} C}{12.01 \hspace{3} g \hspace{3} C} )(\frac{6.02(10)^{23} \hspace{3} atoms \hspace{3} C}{1 \hspace{3} mol \hspace{3} C} ) = 1.50375 × 10²⁴ atoms C

Step 3: Simplify

We are given 3 sig figs.

1.50375 × 10²⁴ atoms C ≈ 1.50 × 10²⁴ atoms C

Calculate the value of Key in the following reaction if the equilibrium concentrations are
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The value of the equilibrium constant Kc is 5.45

Explanation:

The "Law of Mass Action" states:

"For a reversible reaction in chemical equilibrium at a given temperature, it is true that the product of the concentrations of the products raised to the stoichiometric coefficients divided by the product of the concentrations of the reactants raised to their stoichiometric coefficients is a constant."

This constant was called the equilibrium constant. For a reaction:

aA + bB ⇄ cC + dD

the equilibrium constant Kc is:

Kc=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a} *[B]^{b} }

In this case, the balanced reaction is:

2 H₂S → 2 H₂ + S₂

So, the equilibrium constant Kc is:

Kc=\frac{[H_{2} ]^{2} *[S_{2} ] }{[H_{2} S]^{2}  }

The equilibrium concentrations are

  • [H₂S] =0.25 M
  • [H₂]= 0.88 M
  • [S₂]= 0.44M

Replacing in the definition of equilibrium constant:

Kc=\frac{(0.88 M)^{2} *0.44 M }{(0.25 M)^{2}  }

Solving:

Kc= 5.45

<u><em>The value of the equilibrium constant Kc is 5.45</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

How does a allergy develop?<br><br><br> PLEASE HELP!
Nikolay [14]
Allergies arise when a foreign material such as pollen, bee venom or pet dander responds to your immune system or a food that in most people does not cause a reaction. Substances known as antibodies are formed by your immune system.
