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

Salsk061 [2.6K]
5.05 + 5 + 5.1 = 15.15cm Then you just divide it by the amount of measurements you had like this:15.15 ÷ 3 = 5.04999971cm Then you can just round it to the 3rd figure: 5.05cm < And that's the mean/average length of the bar. :) (Or the one above if you want all of the decimals too)

The equilibrium constant, Kc, for the following reaction is 0.967 at 650 K. 2NH3(g) N2(g) 3H2(g) When a sufficiently large sampl

Answer: Concentration of NH_3 in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M

Explanation:

Equilibrium concentration of H_2 = 0.729 M

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

                 2NH_3(g)\rightleftharpoons N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

Initial conc.            x                0           0

At eqm. conc.     (x-2y) M     (y) M   (3y) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be:

3y = 0.729 M

y = 0.243 M

K_c=\frac{[y]\times [3y]^3}{[x-2y]^2}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

K_c=\frac{0.243\times (0.729)^3}{(x-2\times 0.243)^2}

0.967=\frac{0.243\times (0.729)^3}{(x-2\times 0.243)^2}

x=0.80

concentration of NH_3 in the equilibrium mixture = 0.80-2\times 0.243=0.31

Thus concentration of NH_3 in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M
