Question
Part A
What is the coordination number for each of the following complexes?
[Co(NH3)4Cl2]+
[Mg(EDTA)]2
[Zn(H2O)4]2+
Na[Ag(CN)2]
Enter the coordination numbers, in the order that the complexes are listed, as four integers separated by commas (e.g.,1,2,3,4).
Part B
What is the charge on each of the following complex ions?
hexaaquairon(II), [Fe(H2O)6]?
tris(carbonato)nickelate(III),[Ni(CO3)3]?
amminepentabromoplatinate(IV),[Pt(NH3)Br5]?
Express the charges numerically, in the order that the complexes are listed, separated by commas. For a nonzero charge, be sure to include the sign (e.g., +1,-2,+3).
Part C
What is the oxidation number of the central metal ion in each of the following complexes?
[NiF2Br2]2
[Fe(H2O)4(NH3)2]3+
Na[Au(CN)2]
Express the oxidation numbers numerically, in the order that the complexes are listed, separated by commas. For a nonzero oxidation number, be sure to include the sign (e.g.,+1,-2,+3).
Explanation / Answer
Part A
[Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ---- 6
