Coordination Chemistry

It is a part of chemistry, in which the study of compounds that have central atoms surrounded by molecules or ions, known as ligand, is known as coordination chemistry.

A coordination compound has the following composition (by mass %): 23.53% Co; 42.47% Cl, and 34.00% NH3. When 4.91 g of the compound is dissolved in 75.0 mL of deionized water, and the solution is reacted with an excess of AGNO; solution, it yields 5.60 g of AgCl precipitate.

Transition metal complexes are highly likely to be colored because of a) the size of the energy gap within the d orbitals and the number of electrons. In ruby, the red color of ruby is attributed to a small amount of Cr³* substituting into Al2O3 which is made up of shared AIO, octahedra. Provide a hypothesis for the origin of the red color observed in ruby. Red pigments tend to be rare. If you had to design a new material that b) had an approximate bandgap that would absorb green, what ideas do you need to employ to find a new semiconductor that does not contain Cd, Hg or Pb as one of the components (see last lecture for ideas).
