Question

7. The type of bonding in the Ni-DMG complex is
a). Hydrogen bond
b). Coordinate bond
c). Covalent bond
d) Alla, b&c​

Answer 1

Answer:

hydrogen is the answer bond ok a

Answer 2

The type of bonding in the Ni-DMG complex is d) All a b&c.

• Ni-DMG complex is dimethyl glyoxylate and is a square planar complex.
• The oxidation state of Ni is +2 and the hybridization is +2.
• The stability of the complex is due to the presence of chelation and hydrogen bonding. chelation causes the pairing of electrons and forms a square planar complex.
• (CH3COONOH)2 is DMG and the two of them coordination bond is formed between the nitrogen of DMG and Ni.
• The two hydrogen bond is formed by the oxygen of one NOH group of DMG and the hydrogen of the other NOH group of DMG.
• The remaining bonds are covalent.
