Question 1

The complex ion NiCl42– is tetrahedral. The number of unpaired electrons in the complex is:

0
1
2
3
4

Question 2

The complex ions of Zn2+ are all colorless. The most likely explanation for this is:

Zn2+ is paramagnetic.
Zn2+ exhibits “d orbital” splittings in its complexes such that they absorb all wavelengths in the visible region.
Since Zn2+ is a d10 ion, it does not absorb visible light even though the “d orbital” splittings are correct for absorbing visible wavelengths.
Zn2+ is not a transition metal ion.
None of these are correct.

The B-complex vitamins and vitamin C are not stored in the body and must be replaced each day.

Did you know?

Interferon was scarce and expensive until 1980, when the interferon gene was inserted into bacteria using recombinant DNA technology, allowing for mass cultivation and purification from bacterial cultures.

Did you know?

Many medications that are used to treat infertility are injected subcutaneously. This is easy to do using the anterior abdomen as the site of injection but avoiding the area directly around the belly button.

Did you know?

Autoimmune diseases occur when the immune system destroys its own healthy tissues. When this occurs, white blood cells cannot distinguish between pathogens and normal cells.

Did you know?

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
