What is the formula of the chromium(iii) complex that contains two ammonia and four thiocyanate (scn−) ligands?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer is: formula of the complex is [Cr(NH₃)₂(SCN)₄<span>]</span>⁻<span>.
This complex has negative charge (-1) because chromium (central atom or metal) has oxidation number +3, first ligand ammonia has neutral charge and second ligand thiocyanate has negative oxidation number -1:
+3 + 2</span>·0 + 4·(-1) = -1.

Answer:

Explanation:

To answer this, we need to use Gay-Lussac's law, which states that:

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}= \frac{P_2}{T_2}$ , where P is pressure and T is temperature

The initial pressure we're given is 4.5 atm (so P1 = 4.5) and the temperature is 45.0°C; however, we need to change Celsius to Kelvins, so add 273 to 45.0: 45.0 + 273 = 318 K (so T1 = 318).

The final pressure is what we want to find, but we do know the final temperature is 3.1°C. Converting this to Kelvins, we get: 3.1 + 273 = 276.1 K, which means T2 = 276.1.

Plug these values in:

$\frac{P_1}{T_1}= \frac{P_2}{T_2}$

$\frac{4.5}{318}= \frac{P_2}{276.1}$

Multiply both sides by 276.1:

$P_2$ ≈ 3.9 atm

The answer is thus A.

PLS HELP ASAP!!!! Describe metallic bonds, include an explanation of their valence electrons. How this related to the properties

Aloiza [94]

If you look it up it will give you plenty of information. This is what I found:

The valence electrons of metals move freely in this way because metals have relatively low electronegativity, or attraction to electrons. The positive metal ions form a lattice-like structure held together by all the metallic bonds. ... When nonmetals bond together, the atoms share valence electrons and do not become ions

What is the change in internal energy (ΔΕ) of a system when 5 kJ of work is done on the system while it releases 13 kJ of energy

meriva

The change in internal energy (ΔΕ) of a system : -8 kJ

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The laws of thermodynamics 1 state that: energy can be changed but cannot be destroyed or created

The equation is:

$\tt \Delta U=Q+W$

Energy owned by the system is expressed as internal energy (U)

This internal energy can change if it absorbs heat Q (U> 0), or releases heat (U <0). Or the internal energy can change if the system does work or accepts work (W)

The sign rules for heat and work are set as follows:

• The system receives heat, Q +

• The system releases heat, Q -

• The system does work, W -

• the system accepts work, W +

5 kJ of work is done on the system : W = +5 kJ

releases 13 kJ of energy to the surroundings : Q = -13 kJ

$\tt \Delta E=-13+5=-8~kJ$

What happens to the population growth in a logistic growth pattern as it approaches carrying capacity?

AveGali [126]

B. slows down is your answer, obviously as it approaches carrying capacity, there would be less available space to find in the place of inhabitance, so less and less population units would be able to find the place of inhabitance suitable for living, or can't find enough space to live in.
