why is zinc not really active as a transition metal
Zinc is present in the human body at a concentration of 33 ppm. If an average human body has a mass of 70.0 kg, what mass (in grams) of zinc is present? Give your answer to two significant figures. Answer in g Zn
1,2-diaminoethane, H2N-CH2-CH2-NH2. is used extensively in the synthesis of compounds containing transition-metal complexes in water. If pKb1 = 3.29 and pKb2 = 6.44, what is the pH of a 1.00x10-4 M solution of diaminoethane?
Electron configurations of transition metal ions Zinc is an essential mineral of great biological and health importance. In fact, it is the second most abundant transition metal after iron in our body. Most exists as Zn2+ ion in active site of enzymes, and they (more than 300) perform an array of functions. a. What is the electronic configuration of the Zn atom. b. Here comes the irritating part in chemistry. Although the 3d orbitals are placed higher in energy than...

Cavities of the human body Identify the major cavities of the human body by dragging the constituent parts of each cavity into the correct box below. Abdominal cavity Cranial cavity Contains the brain Contains reproductive and other organs Contains the lungs Pelvic cavity Thoracic cavity Vertebral cavity Contains the pancreas and gallbladder Contains the stomach Contains the spinal cord Contains the esophagus
1.) Identify the most likely transition metal, M and provide a
suitable explanation:
a.) A complex ion with the formula
[M(H2O)6]3+, where M is a second
row transition metal, that has a LFSE (CFSE) of -2.4
(ignoring pairing and exchange energies). Hint: only the low
spin configuration is observed in second row transition metals.
b.) A tetrahedral complex ion with the formula
[MCl4]-, where M is a first row transtion
metal, that has five unpaired electrons.
Synthesis and Characterization of Mo2(O2CCH3)4 and K4Mo2Cl8: Compounds that Contain Metal-Metal Quadruple Bonds 1. Include complete balanced reactions of both preparations, from starting materials to products. 2. Trimethylamine-N-oxide is used as an initiator for the Mo2(O2CCH3)4 preparation. Suggest a reaction by which Trimethyl-amine-N-oxide activates molybdenum hexacarbonyl. 3. Mo2(O2CCH3)4 has a bond order of four and is diamagnetic. If this compound was oxidized or reduced by one electron, what would be the resulting bond orders?
