In some separation schemes, palladium is purified by manipulating equilibria involving [Pd(NH 3) 4]Cl 2, [PdCl 2 (NH 3) 2], and [Pt(NH 3) 4][PtCl 4] (Magnus's green salt). In the processing of cellulose, the copper ammine complex known as Schweizer's reagent ([Cu(NH 3) 4 (H 2 O) 2](OH) 2) is sometimes used to solubilise the polymer. Schweizer's ...
For this molecule, carbon sp 2 hybridises, because one π (pi) bond is required for the double bond between the carbons and only three σ bonds are formed per carbon atom. In sp 2 hybridisation the 2s orbital is mixed with only two of the three available 2p orbitals, usually denoted 2p x and 2p y. The third 2p orbital (2p z) remains unhybridised.
Potassium dicyanoargentate is an inorganic compound with the formula KAg(CN) 2. A white solid, it is the K + salt of the linear coordination complex [Ag(CN) 2 ] − . It forms upon treatment of virtually any silver salt with two equivalents of potassium cyanide .
Nessler's reagent, named after Julius Neßler (Nessler), is a 0.09 mol/L solution of potassium tetraiodomercurate(II) in 2.5 mol/L potassium hydroxide. This pale solution becomes deeper yellow in the presence of ammonia (NH 3). At higher concentrations, a brown precipitate derivative of Millon's base (HgO·Hg(NH 2)Cl) may form.
Bent's rule can be extended to rationalize the hybridization of nonbonding orbitals as well. On the one hand, a lone pair (an occupied nonbonding orbital) can be thought of as the limiting case of an electropositive substituent, with electron density completely polarized towards the central atom.
Some silver oxide powder.. Silver is a relatively unreactive metal, although it can form several compounds. The common oxidation states of silver are (in order of commonness): +1 (the most stable state; for example, silver nitrate, AgNO 3); +2 (highly oxidising; for example, silver(II) fluoride, AgF 2); and even very rarely +3 (extreme oxidising; for example, potassium tetrafluoroargentate(III ...
Abiological nitrogen fixation describes chemical processes that fix (react with) N 2, usually with the goal of generating ammonia. The dominant technology for abiological nitrogen fixation is the Haber process, which uses iron-based heterogeneous catalysts and H 2 to convert N 2 to NH 3. This article focuses on homogeneous (soluble) catalysts ...
In the binuclear ion [Co 2 (OH 2) 10] 4+ each bridging water molecule donates one pair of electrons to one cobalt ion and another pair to the other cobalt ion. The Co-O (bridging) bond lengths are 213 picometers, and the Co-O (terminal) bond lengths are 10 pm shorter. [10] The complexes [Mo 2 (H 2 O) 8] 4+ and [Rh 2 (H 2 O) 10] 4+ contain metal ...
