3- You have been sent to India to investigate the occurrence of goiter disease attributed to iodine deficiency. As part of your investigation, you must make field measurements of traces of iodide in groundwater. The procedure is to oxidize to and convert them into an intensely colored complex with the dye brilliant green in the organic solvent toluene. (a) A solution of the colored complex at concentration of 0.0125 M exhibited an absorbance of 0.267 at 635 nm in a 1.000-cm cuvette. A blank solution made from distilled water in place of groundwater had an absorbance of 0.019. Find the molar absorptivity of the colored complex. (b) The absorbance of an unknown solution prepared from groundwater was 0.175. Find the concentration of the unknown.

Describe the general trends in the following properties of first series 3d of transition elements: (i) number of oxidation states exhibited (ii) formation of oxometal ions.
the spectrochemical series allows us to explain the variety ofcolors observed in transition metal complexes. But in practice, someone attempting to predictthe properties of compounds can occasionally be frustrated by various complicating factors.For instance, the nitrite ligand is presented as having a high field strength, but that is only whenit is the nitrogen of the nitrite that is coordinating to the metal center. Nitrite is also capable ofbinding to the metal center through an oxygen, and when this happens, nitrite is a low fieldstrength ligand. Furthermore, many metals initially precipitate as simple ionic salts before theyhave a chance to form more soluble complex ions. And occasionally, unexpected redoxreactions can lead to complex mixtures. The complex that copper forms with chloride ions is tetrahedral. Write the chemical formula for this complex. Thoroughly describe the energy diagram for the d orbitals.
