Concept explainers

Formal Charges
Formal charges have an important role in organic chemistry since this concept helps us to know whether an atom in a molecule is neutral/bears a positive or negative charge. Even if some molecules are neutral, the atoms within that molecule need not be ne…
Polarity Of Water
In simple chemical terms, polarity refers to the separation of charges in a chemical species leading into formation of two polar ends which are positively charged end and negatively charged end. Polarity in any molecule occurs due to the differences in t…
Valence Bond Theory Vbt
Valence bond theory (VBT) in simple terms explains how individual atomic orbitals with an unpaired electron each, come close to each other and overlap to form a molecular orbital giving a covalent bond. It gives a quantum mechanical approach to the forma…

Chapter 20, Problem 72AE

The compound cisplatin, Pt(NH3)2Cl2, has been studied extensively as an antitumor agent. The reaction for the synthesis of cisplatin is:

K 2 PtCl 4 ( a q ) + 2 NH 3 ( a q ) → Pt ( NH 3 ) 2 Cl 2 ( s ) + 2 KCl ( a q )

Write the electron configuration for platinum ion in cisplatin. Most d8 transition metal ions exhibit square planar geometry. With this and the name in mind, draw the structure of cisplatin.

2. Platinum and other group 10 metals often act as solid phase hydrogenation catalysts for unsaturated hydrocarbons such as propylene, CH3CHCH2. In order for the reaction to be catalyzed the propylene molecules must first adsorb onto the surface. In order to completely cover the surface of a piece of platinum that has an area of 1.50 cm² with propylene, a total of 3.45 x 10¹7 molecules are needed. Determine the mass of the propylene molecules that have been absorbed onto the platinum surface.
Chem 141, Dr. Haefner 2. (a) Many main group oxides form acidic solutions when added to water. For example solid tetraphosphorous decaoxide reacts with water to produce phosphoric acid. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. (b) Calcium phosphate reacts with silicon dioxide and carbon graphite at elevated temperatures to produce white phosphorous (P4) as a gas along with calcium silicate (Silcate ion is SiO3²-) and carbon monoxide. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction.
Problem Set 4a Chem 1411. A latex balloon is filled with a total of carbon dioxide gas so that its volume reaches 1.352 L. The balloon whose weight was originally 0.753 g, now weighs 2.538 g. How many molecules of carbon dioxide have been added to the balloon?
