Chapter 20, Problem 101MP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The probable structural formulas for the salts on the basis of the given observations are to be stated. The salt that is most likely to be violet and whether a study of the magnetic properties of the salts be useful in determining the structural formulas are to be explained.
Concept introduction: Electronic configuration is used to describe the distribution of the electrons in the orbitals of an atom. Structure of an atom can be defined by its electronic configuration. It can also be used to denote an atom which is ionized to a cation or anion formed by the loss or gain of electrons in their respective orbitals.
To determine: The formula of the compound A and the structure of complex ion present on the basis of given information.

The cobalt carbonyl complex, Co2(CO)8, undergoes an oxidation with hydrogen gas to form a monomeric metal hydride product, HCo(CO)4. The resulting complex could have one of three possible structures, so an infrared spectrum was obtained. If the spectrum has 12 observable bands overall, what is the likely structure?
The compound Cr(en)2(OH)2Cl has been prepared in several isomeric forms:
Isomer A is optically inactive and undergoes no reaction with either AgNO3 or en.
Isomer B is optically inactive and reacts with AgNO3 to form a white precipitate, but does not react with en.
Isomer C is optically active and reacts both with en and AgNO3.
Assuming the coordination number of chromium is 6, identify each of the three isomers by name and draw each of the structures.Hint: For the en ligand think about what angle the donor atoms form with the metal ion.
