Chapter 21, Problem 21.82SP

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The chemical formula of tetraammineplatinum(II) chloride compound is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The coordination compound can be defined as the compound in which the central atoms are connected to the other ions or neutral molecules through coordinate bonds. When the other ions or neutral molecules have the tendency to donate electrons to the central atom then these are called as Lewis base. Similarly, central atoms or ion have the tendency to accept the electrons then it is called as Lewis acid.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The chemical formula of sodium hexacyanoferrate (II) compound is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The coordination compound can be defined as the compound in which the central atoms are connected to the other ions or neutral molecules through coordinate bonds. When the other ions or neutral molecules have the tendency to donate electrons to the central atom then these are called as Lewis base. Similarly, central atoms or ion have the tendency to accept the electrons then it is called as Lewis acid.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The chemical formula of sodium tris(ethylenediamine)platinum(IV)sulfate compound is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The coordination compound can be defined as the compound in which the central atoms are connected to the other ions or neutral molecules through coordinate bonds. When the other ions or neutral molecules have the tendency to donate electrons to the central atom then these are called as Lewis base. Similarly, central atoms or ion have the tendency to accept the electrons then it is called as Lewis acid.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)
