An inorganic compound is a substance that does not contain both carbon andhydrogen. A great many inorganic compounds do contain hydrogenatoms, such as water (H2O) and the hydrochloric acid (HCl) produced by your stomach. In contrast, only a handful of inorganic compounds contain carbon atoms.
Answer:
[Ni(CN)4]2- square planar
[NiCl4]2- tetrahedral
Explanation:
For a four coordinate complex such as [Ni(CN)4]2- and [NiCl4]2-, we can decide its geometry by closely considering its magnetic properties. Both of the complexes are d8 complexes which could be found either in the tetrahedral or square planar crystal field depending on the nature of the ligand.
CN^- being a strong field ligand leads to the formation of a square planar diamagnetic d8 complex of Ni^2+. Similarly, Cl^- being a weak field ligand leads to the formation a a tetrahedral paramagnetic d8 complex of Ni^+ hence the answer given above.
Answer:
Choice A.
A low birth to death ratio
Explanation:
A low birth to death ratio means that people are dying faster than they are being born. This leads to a decreasing population size.
