Why Zinc is not really considered as member of the transition metals?

1 answer:

7 0

The definition of a transition metal is that it must have an incompleted sub-level in one or more of its oxidation states. As zinc has a completed sub-level at all oxidative states, so it can't be considered a transition metal.

A complex ion that forms in solution has a structure that:____.

xeze [42]

Answer:

can only be determined experimentally.

Explanation:

In the early days of inorganic chemistry, the structure of complex ions remained a mystery hence the name ''complex''.

These ions appear to have structures that defied accurate elucidation. However, by diligent laboratory investigation, Alfred Werner was able to accurately determine the structure of cobalt complexes. As a result of this, he is regarded as a pathfinder in coordination chemistry.

Hence, the structure of complex ions can only be determined experimentally.

What type of bond is this combination likely to form

kari74 [83]

Answer:

A combination is certainly possible, but you should not take formal charges so literally

Normally, when a covalent bond is found, the two atoms both bring in one electron. As you identify correctly, in the case of nitric acid that would not be possible completely. If you draw the different possible resonance structures, the most likely structure has a single bond between the nitrogen and an oxygen where the oxygen has 3 lone pairs and both electrons in the bond are donated by the nitrogen. This makes the nitrogen "positive" and that oxygen "negative", but in fact the electrons move more freely in the molecule and charges are more distributed. You will not be able to find "the negatively charged" oxygen atom.
