Why do the metals Co, Rh, and Lr form octahedral complexes (rather than tetrahedral or square planar complexes)? Hint: Look at t

he placement in the periodic table and the respective electron configurations.

Explanation:

Octahedral complexes will be favoured over tetrahedral ones because:

It is more favourable to form six bonds rather than four

The crystal field stabilisation energy is usually greater for octahedral than tetrahedral complexes.

The transition metals Co, Rh, Lr are in group 9 of d block and they have 3d, 4d, and 5d orbitals respectively

The conversion of cyclopropane to propene occurs with a first-order rate constant of . How long will it take for the concentrati
Gennadij [26K]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

The conversion of cyclopropane to propene occurs with a first-order rate constant of 2.42 × 10⁻² hr⁻¹. How long will it take for the concentration of cyclopropane to decrease from an initial concentration 0.080 mol/L to 0.053 mol/L?

Answer : The time taken will be, 17.0 hr

Explanation :

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}

where,

k = rate constant  = 2.42\times 10^{-2}\text{ hr}^{-1}

t = time passed by the sample  = ?

a = initial concentration of the reactant  = 0.080 M

a - x = concentration left = 0.053 M

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get

t=\frac{2.303}{2.42\times 10^{-2}}\log\frac{0.080}{0.053}

t=17.0\text{ hr}

Therefore, the time taken will be, 17.0 hr
