Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of the chelate complex [Pt (ox) 2]2- needs to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Chelation is the process of bonding metal ion to other molecules and ions. The central atom is linked with two or more polydentate ligands by coordination bonds. These are called as chelates. The oxalate ion is a bidentate ligand having four oxygen atoms with lone pairs.
(b)
Interpretation:
The structure of the chelate complex [Cr (ox) 3]3- needs to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Chelation is the process of bonding metal ion to other molecules and ions. The central atom is linked with two or more polydentate ligands by coordination bonds. These are called as chelates. The oxalate ion is a bidentate ligand having four oxygen atoms with lone pairs.
(c)
Interpretation:
The structure of the chelate complex [Fe (EDTA)] 2- needs to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
Chelation is the process of bonding metal ion to other molecules and ions. The central atom is linked with two or more polydentate ligands by coordination bonds. These are called as chelates. There are many agents and oxalates is one of them. The oxalate ion is a bidentate ligand having four oxygen atoms with lone pairs.
