20
Q

Write the equation and observed reaction for the reaction between a Iron (3+) Aqua complex and a Carbonate ion (CO3 2- ) (aq)

A

Purple Solution ——-> Brown precipitate + effervescence

21
Q

Why are Metal-Aqua Ions Acidic in solution

A

Complex ions react with water (hydrolysis)

Aqua complex ions Dissociate Weakly

Thus Produces H+ ions

Within Solution H+ ions produce the hydronium ion making the solution more acidic

22
Q

Why are 3+ Metal-Aqua ions are more acidic then 2+ Metal aqua ions

A

3+ Metal ions have a larger charge density (larger charge and smaller)

As a result the 3+ ions are more polarising

They attract the electrons in the O-H in the bond more strongly towards the metal ion, which weakens the bond

This means the H+ ion is more readily released which goes on to from more hydroxonium ions

23
Q

What does Amphoteric Mean?

A

A substance that can act as a Bronstead-Lowry Acid and Base

24
Q

Name an example for an amphoteric metal hydroxide

A

Hydrated Aluminium Hydroxide

25
Q

Why does Ammonia form Metal hydroxides

A

When ammonia is in solution, an equilibrium is met as it is a weak base

NH3 dissociates poorly into NH4+ and H-

Metal Aqua complexes react with the H- ions formed to form a hydroxide

26
Q

What can happen when Excess NH3 is added to a TM ion

A

Some Metal Hydroxides that from

react with the ammonia via a partial ligand substitution or full , to form a soluble complex

27
Q

What colour are the following metal aqua ions
Cu2+
Co2+

A

Cu2+ = Blue
Co2+ = Pink

28
Q

What colour are the following metal hexaqua ions
Fe2+
Fe3+
Al3+

A

Fe2+ = Green
Fe3+ = Purple
Al3+ = Clear and Colourless

29
Q

Write the equation and observed reaction for the reaction between a Iron 3+ Aqua complex and Hydrochloric Acid (HCl) (aq)

A

Purple Solution —-> Pale Brown Precipitate

30
Q
A

D
Gallium is a 3+ ion
when a 3+ ion reacts with a Carbonate a Hydroxide is produced with water and carbon dioxide

31
Q

Give an ionic equation for the conversation of [CuCl4]2- when exposed to excess aqueous ammonia

What is The colour change observed

A

Yellow—-> Deep Blue Solution

32
Q

Why would a solution containing [Al(H20)6] have a ph < 7

A

Al3+ central metal ion has a high charge density and small size

This weakens the bond and increases the polarisation of the O-H bonds

Releasing H+ ions

33
Q

State an observation when Sodium Carbonate is added to a solution of [Al(H20)6]

A

Bubbles of effervescence

Clear and colourless to white precipitate

34
Q

Write and equation to show how an aluminium aqua complex can act as a Brønsted-lowry Acid with water

A
35
Q

What is/are the reagent for reducing a Fe3+ aqua ion to a Fe2+ ion

A

Zinc with HCl
