Suppose a platinum atom in the oxidation state formed a complex with two chloride anions and two ammonia molecules. Write the ch

emical formula of this complex.
Chemistry
1 answer:
Korolek [52]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Pt(Cl)2(NH3)2

Explanation:

In the formation of the complex, the oxidation number of platinum is plus two (+2) and two chloride ions cancel it out by their oxidation number of -1 each. Hence the complex has an overall charge of zero. It is thus neutral with no charge attached to its formula.

What is displacement?
mars1129 [50]
Displacement reaction is a chemical reaction in which a more reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its compound. Both metals and non-metals take part in displacement reactions. Example : Reaction of iron nails with copper sulphate solution.

Which of the following bases is the STRONGEST? The base is followed by its Kb.A. C6H5NH2, 4.0 × 10-10 B. NH3, 1.76 × 10-5 C. CH3
Kamila [148]

Answer:

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH

Explanation:

In order to decide which base is strongest we need to calculate its PKb

PKb = -log [Kb]

A large Kb value and small PKb value gives the strongest base

 Compound                   Kb                           PKb      

(A) C6H5NH2 -         4 x 10^-10                      9.349

(B) NH3                     1.76x 10^-5                    4.754

(C) CH3NH2              4.4x 10^-4                     3.357

(D) (CH3CH2)2NH   8.6x 10^-4                     3.066

(E) C5H5N                  1.7x10^-9                      8.77  

Clearly (CH3CH2)2NH is the strongest base.

The molecules in a sample of oxygen gas are in constant motion. What does an increase in temperature indicate about the movement
Basile [38]

Answer:

An increase in temperature indicates that the molecules of gas speed up.


Explanation:


The molecular kinetic theory states that the average kinetic energy of gas particles (molecules) is proportional to the absolute (Kelvin) temperature of the gas, and all gases at the same temperature have the same average kinetic energy.


Therefore, as the temperature increases so the kinetic energy increases.


It is also known that the kinetic energy is proportional to the squared speed of the particles, therefore the higher the kinetic energy the average speed of the molecules:


  • higher temperature → higher kinetic energy → higher average speed

What pressure (in atm) will 0.44 moles of co2 exert in a 2.6 l container at 25°c?
Lilit [14]
We can use the ideal gas law equation to find the pressure 
PV = nRTwhere 
P - pressure 
V - volume  - 2.6 x 10⁻³ m³ 
n - number of moles - 0.44 mol
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature - 25 °C + 273 = 298 K
substituting the values into the equation,
P x 2.6 x 10⁻³ m³  = 0.44 mol x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 298 K
P = 419 281.41 Pa
101 325 Pa is equivalent to 1 atm 
Therefore 419 281.41 Pa - 1/ 101 325 x 419 281.41 = 4.13 atm
Pressure is 4.13 atm
