Chapter 8, Problem 32E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: The name of the molecule $\left[{\text{PtCl}}_{\text{2}}{\left({\text{NH}}_{\text{3}}\right)}_{\text{2}}\right]$ .

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the tetrahedral molecule has a geometric isomer.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the tetrahedral molecule is diamagnetic or paramagnetic.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the square planar molecule has a geometric isomer.

(e)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If the square planar molecule is diamagnetic or paramagnetic.

(f)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If knowing the number of geometric isomers help to distinguish between the tetrahedral and square-planar molecule.

(g)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine: If measuring the molecules response to a magnetic field help to distinguish between the tetrahedral and square-planar molecule.
