Answer:
CN^- is a strong field ligand
Explanation:
The complex, hexacyanoferrate II is an Fe^2+ specie. Fe^2+ is a d^6 specie. It may exist as high spin (paramagnetic) or low spin (diamagnetic) depending on the ligand. The energy of the d-orbitals become nondegenerate upon approach of a ligand. The extent of separation of the two orbitals and the energy between them is defined as the magnitude of crystal field splitting (∆o).
Ligands that cause a large crystal field splitting such as CN^- are called strong field ligands. They lead to the formation of diamagnetic species. Strong field ligands occur towards the end of the spectrochemical series of ligands.
Hence the complex, Fe(CN)6 4− is diamagnetic because the cyanide ion is a strong field ligand that causes the six d-electrons present to pair up in a low spin arrangement.
Answer:
the compound contains C, H, and some other element of unknownidentity, so we can’t calculate the empirical formula
Explanation:
Mass of CO2 obtained = 3.14 g
Hence number of moles of CO2 = 3.14g/44.0 g = 0.0714 mol
The mass of the carbon in the sample = 0.0714 mol × 12.0g/mol = 0.857 g
Mass of H2O obtained = 1.29 g
Hence number of moles of H2O = 1.29g/18.0 g = 0.0717 mol
The mass of the carbon in the sample = 0.0717 mol × 1g/mol = 0.0717 g
% by mass of carbon = 0.857/1 ×100 = 85.7 %
% by mass of hydrogen = 0.0717/1 × 100 = 7.17%
Mass of carbon and hydrogen = 85.7 + 7.17 = 92.87 %
Hence, there must be an unidentified element that accounts for (100 - 92.87) = 7.13% of the compound.
Water is the only one of these that would work by process of elimination.
Answer:
Warm air rises, resulting in a decrease air pressure.
Explanation:
Tornado is the rapid and violent rotation of column of air which move from the thunderstorm to the ground.
It is formed when there is collision between warm and cold air. The cold air which is more sense than the warm air is pushed over the warm air which result in thunderstorms. The warm air then rises which result in decrease air pressure causing an updraft. The updraft then begin to rotate as there are variations in wind speeds and directions.
Isomers are the compounds having same molecular formula but different structural formula.
Since, molecular formula is isomers are same, they have same mass.
Now, <span>methyl ethanoate is an isomer of propanoic acid, hence they have same mass.
</span>∴ Molecular mass of propanoic acid = 74.1 amu or 74.1 g/mol<span>
