Chapter 23 - Transition Metals Chemistry and Coordination Compounds

alloys

In ________, electrical cables, tubes, and coins copper is used.

detergent industry

The ________ has revolutionized sodium tripolyphosphate.

Chemists

________ calculated the crystal splitting for each ligand using spectroscopic data for several complexes with the same metal ion but different ligands, and established a spectrochemical series, which is a list of ligands arranged in increasing order of their ability to split the d orbital energy levels.

Ligands

________ are the molecules or ions that surround the metal in a complexion.

Fe2O3

It can be found in a variety of ores, including hematite (________), siderite (FeCO3), and magnetite (Fe3O4)

H2O

________ and NH3 are monodentate ligands, meaning they each have only one donor atom.

Stereoisomers

________ that can not be interconverted without breaking a chemical link are known as geometric isomers.

stable species

A thermodynamically ________ is therefore not unreactive.

coordination compound

A(n) ________ is made up of a complexion and a counter ion in most cases.

Geometric isomers

________ are commonly seen in pairs.

Strong metallic

________ bonding result from the combination of tight packing and small atomic size.

labile complex

The ________ is known to complexes such as tetracyanonickelate (II) because they are subjected to rapid reactions of the ligand.

Optical isomers

________ are mirror images that can not be superimposed.

Copper

________ has the highest electrical conductivity after silver, too expensive for large- scale use.

external electrons

The ________ weakly protect each other from the extra nuclear charge in the third period- sodium to argon.

Iron

________ is the second most prevalent metal in the Earth's crust, behind aluminum.

Cis

________ denotes that two atoms are next to each other in the structural formula, while trans denotes that the atoms are on opposing sides.

Transition metal complexes

________ have a wide range of oxidation states.

Unclean copper

________ can be electrolysically purified.

tripolyphosphate ion

The ________ is an effective, stability and solubility of chelating agent with Ca2+ ions.

Coordination compounds

________ are found in biological systems and are used in a variety of settings, including the household, industry, and medicine.

Ligands

________ are characterized as monodentate, bidentate, or polydentate depending on the number of donor atoms present.
