Differentiate between Mendeleev's Period law and Modern Periodic law<br>

True or false. Large covalent molecules with the same molecular formula or more likely to have identical angles between orbitals

Alexeev081 [22]

True, because the large covalent molecules would combine with the others

For each of the following pairs of complexes, identify which one you would predict to have the larger Δo value, and explain why.

mash [69]

Answer:

a) [Fe(H2O)6]3+

b) [Fe(CN)6]3−

c) [Ru(CN)6]3-

Explanation:

. [Mn(H2O)6]2+ or [Fe(H2O)6]3+

The both complexes are d5 complexes with the same ligand , water. Water is a weak ligand and note that Mn^2+ often have a crystal field stabilization energy of zero hence

[Fe(H2O)6]3+ will possess a greater ∆o value.

The splitting of d orbitals according to the crystal field theory depends on the;

i)geometry of the complex

ii) nature of the metal ion,

iii)charge on the metal ion,

iv) ligands that surround the metal ion.

When the geometry and the ligands are held constant, the order of crystal field splitting is as follows;

Pt4+ > Ir3+ > Rh3+ > Co3+ > Cr3+ > Fe3+ > Fe2+ > Co2+ > Ni2+ > Mn2+

[Fe(H2O)6]3+ or [Fe(CN)6]3−

[Fe(CN)6]3− will have a greater ∆o because the cyanide ion is a strong field ligand compared to water. A strong field ligand causes a greater splitting of the octahedral crystal field compared to a weak field ligand.

. [Fe(CN)6]3− or [Ru(CN)6]3-

[Ru(CN)6]3- will exhibit a greater crystal field splitting. Crystal field splitting increases with the second and third row transition elements when compared to the crystal field splitting of the first row transition elements. Note that, there is an increase of approximately 30%–50% in Δo on going from a first-row transition metal to a second-row metal and another 30%–50% increase on going from a second-row to a third-row metal when they have the same geometry and oxidation state.

A dialysis unit requires 70000 mL of distilled water. How many gallons of water are needed? (1 gal = 4 qt)

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer: 19.25 gallons

Explanation: 1 ml = 0.0011 quart

Given: 4 quarts = 1 gallon

Thus if 1 ml is equal to 0.0011 quart

70000 ml is equal to = $\frac{0.0011}{1}\times 70000=77quart$
