Chapter 23, Problem 23.69P

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The formulas for the given complex $\text{Pd}{\text{K(NH}}_{\text{3}}{\text{)Cl}}_{\text{3}}$ with these compositions has to be written.

Concept introduction:  -

Geometry of coordination compounds: The study of geometry of the coordination compound helps in understanding the physical and chemical property of the compound.

Stereoisomer: The same molecular formula but different with the arrangements of atoms around the metal ion.  The Ligands are arranged differently in coordination compounds.

Geometric isomers: stereoisomers that cannot be interconverted without breaking the chemical bonds.

Optical isomers: Optical isomers are non-superimposable mirror images.

Plane-polarized light: Light that oscillates in a single plane.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The formulas for the given complex ${\text{PdCl}}_{\text{2}}{{\text{(NH}}_{\text{3}}\text{)}}_{\text{2}}$ with these compositions has to be written.

Concept introduction:

Linkage isomers occur when the composition of the complex ion is the same but the ligand donor atom is different.  Some ligands can bind to the metal ion through either of two donor atoms.

Geometry of coordination compounds: The study of geometry of the coordination compound helps in understanding the physical and chemical property of the compound.

Stereoisomer: The same molecular formula but different with the arrangements of atoms around the metal ion.  The Ligands are arranged differently in coordination compounds.

Geometric isomers: stereoisomers that cannot be interconverted without breaking the chemical bonds.

Optical isomers: Optical isomers are non-superimposable mirror images.

Plane-polarized light: Light that oscillates in a single plane.
