Answer is: twelve-electron.
Half reaction: Cr₂O₇²⁻ + 14H⁺ → 2Cr + 7H₂O
Oxidation number of chromium in dichromate is +6, because there are two chromium cations, <span>altogether oxidation number of chromium is +12.
Oxidation number of chromium metal is 0.
From +12 to 0, 12 electrons is needed for reduction.</span>

Let's Assign Symbols to molecules like,

                    C₂O₄  =  X
and 
                    H₂O   =  Y
Then,
                                K [ Co (X)₂ (Y)₂ ]

As, Potassium (K) has a O.N  =  +1

To neutralize, the coordination sphere must have -1 oxidation number.
So,
                                    [ Co (X)₂ (Y)₂ ]  =  -1
As,
           O.N of X  = -2
Then 
       O.N of (X)₂  =  -4

Also,
O.N of H₂O is zero as it is neutral, So,

                                    [Co - 4 + 0 ]  =  -1
Or,
                                    Co  =  -1 + 4

                                    Co  =  +3

Result:
          Oxidation Number of Coordination Sphere is -1 and Oxidation Number of Cu is +3.

PLEASE HELP!!! Which of John Dalton's contributions are present in the modern atomic model and which were eventually disproven a
Yanka [14]
1) All matter is made of atoms. Atoms are indivisible and indestructible.

2) All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties

3) Compounds are formed by a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms.

4) A chemical reaction is a rearrangement of atoms.

1 and 2 were proved wrong.

Using your data above, draw conclusions about the d-splitting for each ligand (H2O, en, phen). Order the complexes from least to
Delvig [45]

Answer:

H2O<en<phen

Explanation:

The degree of d- splitting is observed from the intensity of colour. The order of d splitting from least to greatest is H2O<en<phen. Phen shows the greatest d-splitting. The degree of splitting of d- orbitals by ligands depends on their relative positions in the spectrochemical series. The spectrochemical series is an experimentally determined series. The series separates the ligands into strong field and weak field ligands. Strong field ligands are found towards the end of the series. Strong field ligands such as en and phen can participate in metal to ligand or ligand to metal pi-bonding. Hence they cause more d-splitting. Ethylendiamine and phenanthroline occur towards the end of the spectrochemical series hence the higher order of d-splitting.
