[Co(CN)₆]³⁻ → Yellow
[Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ → Orange
[CoF₆]³⁻ → Blue
Explanation:
- All the given compounds have octahedral geometry but the ligand in each are different with the same metal ion.
- Ligands strength order: CN⁻ > NH₃ > F⁻
- The ligand CN will act as a strong field ligand so that the splitting is maximum when compared to NH₃ and F⁻
- If the splitting is more, the energy required for transition is more, and the wavelength is inversely proportional to energy.
- So CN complex will absorb at lower wavelength (yellow color)
Answer:
to find the number of electrons you need the charge of the element.
Answer:
Percentage Yield is given as,
%age Yield = Actual Yield / Theoretical Yield × 100
This shows that the %age yield is directly depending upon the actual yield. And most of the time the percentage yield is less than 100 % because of the following factors.
Impure Starting Materials:
If the starting materials (reactants) are not pure then reaction will not completely form the desired product. Different by products will form which will decrease the %age yield.
Incomplete Reactions:
Not all reactions go to completion. In many reactions the starting material after some time stops forming the product due to different conditions. Some reactions attain equilibrium and stop increasing the amount of product. While, in some reactions a by products (like water) formed often react with the product to give a reverse reactions. Hence, the chemistry of reactions also causes the decrease in %age yield.
Handling:
Another major reason for decrease in yield is handling the product. Always some of the product is lost during the workup of the reaction like, taking TLC, doing solvent extraction, doing column chromatography, taking characterization spectrums. So, we can conclude that the %age yield will always be less than 100%.
Answer:
C. Hair dryer
Explanation:
Alternating Current
The other kind of electricity is called alternating current, or AC. Power plants produce this
type of electricity. It is carried by large power lines from the plant to your home. When you
plug a TV, a lamp, or a hair dryer into the wall socket, you are using this type of electricity.
