Question

In which of the following complexes the magnetic moment of both cationic and anionic complexes is same?

Answer 1

hello!

_____

The complexes:-

[Ag(NH3)2]

[Cu(Cl)4]2−

[Co(H2O)6]2

have coordination numbers of two, four, and six, respectively.

The geometries of these complexes are the same as we have seen with VSEPR theory for main group elements:-

linear

tetrahedral.

and octahedral.

Answer 2

1.The following complexes the magnetic moment of both cationic and anionic complexes is same: [Ag(NH3)2],[Cu(Cl)4]2−,[Co(H2O)6]2 having coordination numbers of two, four, and six, respectively.

2.The geometries of these complexes are the same as we have seen with VSEPR theory for main group elements:linear,tetrahedraland octahedral

Explanation:

1.The coordination number is the number of ligands attached to the central metal atom or ion. For example, tetra carbonyl nickel Ni(CO)4 has a coordination number of 4 as 4 CO ligands are attached to Ni atom. Solve any question of Coordination Compounds with:- Patterns of problems.

2.The valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory is a model used to predict 3-D molecular geometry based on the number of valence shell electron bond pairs among the atoms in a molecule or ion.

3.This model assumes that electron pairs will arrange themselves to minimize repulsion effects from one another
