Question

Draw a reasonably correct representation of the following compounds:

A. Tetraamminediaquocobalt (III) bromide

B. Dibromoamminediaquocobalt (III) tetrachlorozincate (II)

C. Chlorodicyanodiammineaurate (II)

Answer 1

the compound A is the octahydral geometry

AS Tchaamime diag, ao cobalt (m) bs omae N H 3 Co BT3 .3 NH OH Tsoms p.poud Dibnomoammine ciaquoco Bv dl Co Cl BY NH3 OH

In complex B is having neutral and weak field ligand so the cobalt complex may be expected as trigonal bipyramidal geometry. Zinc complex is also having weak field ligand so the zinc complex is expected tetrahedral geometry.

In the presence of CN ligand uranium complex is expected mostly square pyramidal structure rather than trigonal bipyramid.
