What is the lanthanide contraction? How does the lanthanide contraction affect the properties of the \(4 d\) and \(5 d\) transition metals?
. Which is more likely to be paramagnetic, \(\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}^{4-}\) or \(\mathrm{Fe}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{6}^{2+}\) ? Explain.
Name the following coordination compounds. a. \(\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)_{5} \mathrm{Br}\right] \mathrm{Br}_{2}\) c. \(\left[\mathrm{Fe}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{NH}_{2}\right)_{2}\left(\mathrm{NO}_{2}\right)_{2}\right] \mathrm{Cl}\) b. \(\mathrm{Na}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Co}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]\) d. \(\left[\mathrm{Pt}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{4} \mathrm{I}_{2}\right]\left[\mathrm{PtI}_{4}\right]\)
a. In the absorption spectrum of the complex ion [Cr(NCS) \(\left._{6}\right]^{3-}\), there is a band corresponding to the absorption of a photon of light with an energy of \(1.75 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{~cm}^{-1}\). Given \(1 \mathrm{~cm}^{-1}=\) \(1.986 \times 10^{-23} \mathrm{~J}\), what is the wavelength of this photon? b. The \(\mathrm{Cr}-\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{C}\) bond angle in \(\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{NCS})_{6}\right]^{3-}\) is predicted to be \(180^{\circ}\). What is the hybridization of the \(\mathrm{N}\) atom in the \(\mathrm{NCS}^{-}\) ligand when a Lewis acid-base reaction occurs between \(\mathrm{Cr}^{3+}\) and \(\mathrm{NCS}^{-}\) that would give a \(180^{\circ} \mathrm{Cr}-\mathrm{N}-\mathrm{C}\) bond angle? \(\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{NCS})_{6}\right]^{3-}\) undergoes substitution by ethylenediammine (en) according to the equation \(\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{NCS})_{6}\right]^{3-}+2 \mathrm{en} \longrightarrow\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{NCS})_{2}(\mathrm{en})_{2}\right]^{+}+4 \mathrm{NCS}^{-}\) Does \(\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{NCS})_{2}(\mathrm{en})_{2}\right]^{+}\) exhibit geometric isomerism? Does \(\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{NCS})_{2}(\mathrm{en})_{2}\right]^{+}\) exhibit optical isomerism?
Which of the following ligands are capable of linkage isomerism? Explain your answer. $$\mathrm{SCN}^{-}, \mathrm{N}_{3}^{-}, \mathrm{NO}_{2}^{-}, \mathrm{NH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{NH}_{2}, \mathrm{OCN}^{-}, \mathrm{I}^{-}$$
