Chem Lab Final Flashcards
Permanganate in acidic conditions
MnO4 - —–> Mn2+ (clear)
Permanganate in neutral conditions
MnO4 - —–> MnO2 (brown ppt)
Permanganate in basic conditions
MnO4 - ——> MnO4 2- (green)
Oxalate as a reducing agent
CO2 (see gas bubbles)
bisulfate (HSO3-) as reducing agent
becomes SO4 2- (sulfate)
oxidation numbers of halogens
-1 to +7
Strong oxidizing agent
- gains electrons more easily (is itself reduced)
- Usually X2 and turns into X-
- changes color the most
Strong reducing agent
- loses electrons more easily (is itself oxidized)
- usually turns from ion (X-) to X2
- most stable in color
EDTA CN and ox.no
ox no: -4
CN = 6 (hexadentate)
C2O4 CN and ox.no.
ox no: -2
CN = 2 (bidentate)
Co 2+
labile
Co 3+
inert
tetrahedral Co
pink
- stable at high temps
octahedral Co
blue
- stable at cold temps
