The molar mass of sodium is 22.99 ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ 22.99 (28) = 643.72 mol now multiply by avogrados number to find the number of atoms. ㅤ ㅤ ㅤ 643.72 (6.022 x 10^23) = 3.88 x 10^26 number of atoms
You can automatically rule out CH₄ since it has no lone pairs at all around the central atom. Water has 2. Ammonia is the only Lewis structure that contains one lone pair.
Answer:
Less
Explanation:
Since [Cu(NH3)4]2+ and [Cu(H2O)6]2+ are Octahedral Complexes the transitions between d-levels explain the majority of the absorbances seen in those chemical compounds. The difference in energy between d-levels is known as ΔOh (ligand-field splitting parameter) and it depends on several factors:
- The nature of the ligand: A spectrochemical series is a list of ligands ordered on ligand strength. With a higher strength the ΔOh will be higher and thus it requires a higher energy light to make the transition.
- The oxidation state of the metal: Higher oxidation states will strength the ΔOh because of the higher electrostatic attraction between the metal and the ligand
A partial spectrochemical series listing of ligands from small Δ to large Δ:
I− < Br− < S2− < Cl− < N3− < F−< NCO− < OH− < C2O42− < H2O < CH3CN < NH3 < NO2− < PPh3 < CN− < CO
Then NH3 makes the ΔOh higher and it requires a higher energy light to make the transition, which means a shorter wavelength.
