Copper would be the last to melt because it has the highest melting point!
The given complex ion is as follow,
[Ru (CN) (CO)₄]⁻
Where;
[ ] = Coordination Sphere
Ru = Central Metal Atom = <span>Ruthenium
CN = Cyanide Ligand
CO = Carbonyl Ligand
The charge on Ru is calculated as follow,
Ru + (CN) + (CO)</span>₄ = -1
Where;
-1 = overall charge on sphere
0 = Charge on neutral CO
-1 = Charge on CN
So, Putting values,
Ru + (-1) + (0)₄ = -1
Ru - 1 + 0 = -1
Ru - 1 = -1
Ru = -1 + 1
Ru = 0
Result:
<span>Oxidation state of the metal species in each complex [Ru(CN)(CO)</span>₄]⁻ is zero.
Since a pH of 3 is three numbers higher than a pH of 6, we can find the change in acidity by taking 10 to the third power. The solution with a pH of 3 is 1000 times more acidic than the solution with a pH of 6.
Sodium chloride and prussic acid are formed
NaCN+HCl→NaCl+HCN
Pollution and people littering. Can change everything.
