Q

which d-block elements are not transition elements

Q

what 2 shapes can complex ions with coordination numbers of 4 give

A
  • tetrahedral (common)
  • square planar
22
Q

when are square planar complexes formed

A

occur in complex ions of transition metals with 8 d-electrons in the highest energy d sub-shelled

23
Q

what does the colour of the complex ions depend upon

A
  • depends upon the metal at the centre of the complex, its oxidation state, and the ligands bonded to It
24
Q

what types of steroisomerisms can complex ions display

A
  • cis-trans isomerism
  • optical isomerism
25
Q

what does the type of stereoisomerism of complex ions depend on

A
  • some 4 coordinate and 6 coordinate complex ions containing 2 different different monodenate ligands show cis-trans isomerism
  • some 6 coordinate complex ions containing monodentate and bidentate ligands can show both cis-trans and optical isomerism
26
Q

what is different between organic stereoisomerism and stereoisomerism in complex ions

A
  • in organic, requires the presence of a C=C bond
  • in complex ions, shape of complex holds groups in different orientations about central ion
27
Q

when would cis isomer complex ions occur

A
  • ligands are adjacent to one another
28
Q

when would trans isomer complex ions occur

A
  • ligands are opposite one another
29
Q

on what octhedral complex can optical isomerism occur

A

has to contain 2 or more bidentate ligands

30
Q

what is another name for optical isomers

A
  • enantiomers
31
Q

whats the definition of optical isomer

A
  • non-superimposable mirror images of each other (like left hand and right hand)
32
Q

what is a ligand substitution reaction

A

reaction is one in which one ligand in a complex ion is replaced by another ligand

33
Q

when copper (II) sulphate is dissolved in water what is seen

A

pale blue complex ion [Cu(H2O)6] 2+, is formed

34
Q

what happens when excess aqueous ammonia is added to a solution containing [Cu(H2O)6] 2+

A
  • pale blue changes colour to form a dark blue solution
  • 4 ammonia ligands have replaced 4 of the water ligands
35
Q

if ammonia is added drop wise to a solution containing [Cu(H2O)6] 2+ what reactions and colour will be seen

A
  • pale blue precipitate of Cu(OH)2 is formed in first stage
  • Cu(OH)2 precipitate then dissolves in excess ammonia to for dark blue solution
36
Q

A
  • pale blue solution changes to form yellow solution
  • example of ligand substitution reaction
  • 6 H2O molecules replaced by 4 Cl molecules
  • Cl ligands are bigger than H2O ligands so fewer can fit round central ion
37

    ^Cr(OH)3 dissolves in excess ammonia to form the complex ion [Cr(NH3)6] 3+
40
Q

explain how carbon monoxide can effect haemoglobin

A
  • When carbon monoxide is inhaled, it binds to hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin
  • this bond is much stronger than the bond between hemoglobin and oxygen.
  • presence of carbon monoxide reduces the oxygen-carrying capacity of blood.
41
Q

what is a precipitation reaction

A
  • occurs when 2 aqueous solutions containing ions react together to form an insoluble ionic solid called a precipitate
42
Q

how do transition metal ions aqueous solutions react with aqueous sodium hydroxide and aqueous ammonia

44
Q

what can be seen when Fe2+ reacts with sodium hydroxide

write reaction

A
  • pale green solution reacts to form green precipitate of iron (II) hydroxide
  • precipitate is insoluble in excess sodium hydroxide but turns brown at its surface as Fe(II) is oxidised to Fe(III)
45
Q

what can be seen as Fe 3+ reacts with sodium hydroxide

write reaction

A
  • pale yellow solution reacts to form an orange-brown precipitate of iron (III) hydroxide
  • precipitate is insoluble in excess
46
Q

what can be seen if Mn2+ reacts with sodium hydroxide (NaOH)

write reaction
