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:
A
Explanation:
Opposite charges attract therefore the electrons of one atom would be attracted by the nucleus (which contains protons). This heavily relies on a property called electronegativity. Which deals with the level of attraction a nucleus (the protons in the nucleus) have for electrons of other atoms.
Answer: Fe<em>(aq)</em>+S<em>(aq)</em>=FeS<em>(s)</em>
Explanation: The Sodium and Bromine are spectator ions because they don't react with anything, you can see this by writing the ionic equation like so:
1.) Molecular formula (given): FeBr2 (aq)+Na2S (aq)= FeS(s)+2NaBr(aq)
Each dissolved FeBr2 breaks up into one Fe with a charge of 2+ and two Br with a negative charge. This gives you:
Fe(aq)+ 2Br(aq)+Na2S(aq)=FeS(s)+2NaBr
2.) Now repeat what was shown with the other compounds in the given molecular formula, and pay attention to the states that each ion is in (solid, liquid, aqueous, gas) because this will give you the ionic equation, which from there you can get rid of any ions that don't change amount or state.
3.) Ionic formula: Fe(aq)+ <u>2Br(aq)</u>+<u>2 Na(aq)</u>+S (aq)=FeS(s)+<u>2 Na(aq)+2Br(aq)</u>
4.)When you've derived a total ionic equation (above), you'll find that some ions appear on both sides of the equation in equal numbers. For example, in this case two Na cations and two Br anions appear on both sides of the total ionic equation. What does this mean? It means these ions don't participate in the chemical reaction. They're present before and after the reaction. Nothing happens to them. So those are removed and you're left with the net ionic: Fe(aq)+S(aq)=FeS(s)
Hope this helps :)
The correct answer is option B. When the forward and reverse paths of a change occur at the same rate, <span>the system is in equilibrium specifically in dynamic equilibrium.</span> Dynamic equilibrium is
the balance in a process that is continuing. It is achieved in a reaction when
the forward rate of reaction and the backward rate of reaction is at the same
value or equal.
