Answer:

SCN- is a weak field ligand while CN- is a strong field ligand

Explanation:

The spectrochemical series is an arrangement of ligands according to their magnitude of crystal field splitting. Ligands that cause only a small degree of crystal field splitting are called weak field ligands while ligands that cause large crystal field splitting are called strong field ligands.

Strong field ligands often lead to the formation of low spin complexes with the least number of unpaired electrons while high spin complexes are formed by weak field ligands.

CN- is a strong field ligand as it lies towards the right hand side of the spectrochemical series.

SCN- is a weak field ligand hence it forms a high spin complex having the maximum number of unpaired electrons for Fe^3+, hence the answer.

xenn [34]

Answer

Manual samplers are prone to effects of temperature, speed of wind and air concentrations.

Explanation

Manual samplers face several challenges that can act as drawbacks to obtaining accurate results. They are subjected to effects of sampling duration where long sampling times are needed to obtain adequate mass for detection. Manual samplers face challenges when measuring non-volatile species because particles are observed into the adsorption medium at a slower rate of diffusion.

We want to find how much charge is on the electrons in a nickel coin. follow this method. a nickel coin has a mass of about 5 g.
Lady bird [3.3K]
The mass of a nickel coin is 5 g.
1 mol of Ni weighs 58 g. 1 mol contains 6.022 x 10²³ atoms of Ni.
therefore in 58 g  there are 6.022 x 10²³ atoms of Ni
then in 5 g the number of Ni atoms are - 6.022 x 10²³ /58 x 5 = 5.2 x 10²² Ni atoms
Therefore number of Ni atoms are 5.2 x 10²² atoms in a nickel coin
