complex ion

How is the number of ligands on a complex ion calculated?

Blomstrand developed what has come to be known as the complex ion chain theory.

Other complex ions often have 4 or 6 ligands.

The formula of the complex ion is enclosed in square brackets.

In naming complex ions, the names of the ligands are cited first.

When a complex ion is formed it can alter the concentrations of its components in the solution.

This essentially spreads the 3+ charge evenly onto the "surface" of the complex ion.

If the solution turns a dark red, that indicates the phosphomolybdate complex ion has formed.

Many transition metal compounds violate this rule due to the formation of complex ions.

Many complex ions react with one another in this way, though it is not a mechanism restricted to such species e.g.

By 1920 the complex ion constitution was still unresolved, even though numerous compounds had been isolated and analysed.

Emphasize differences in charge density, redox properties and complex ion formation.

In the above equilibria, a complex ion is formed:

For this reason H. volcanii has a complex ion regulation system and is chemoautotrophic.

I am afraid that the formulas of the complex ions in the syllabus just have to be learnt.

This is of vital importance in the world of inorganic chemistry and complex ions.

His complex ion was ashen; his lips were practically colorless.

In fact, the complex ion has a strong bitter taste even though it is not a potent as strychnine or brucine.

Recognizing anions and cations, especially involving complex ions, is an essential skill.

When naming a complex ion, the ligands are named before the metal ion.

When comparing the values for Kd, the larger the value is the more unstable the complex ion is.

Activated carbon acts like a sponge to aurocyanide and other complex ions in solution.

This is due to the formation of soluble CuCl complex ions.

Nickel, cobalt, and copper can be extracted using hydrometallurgical processes involving complex ions.

Metals can also be separated using the selective precipitation and solubility of complex ions, as explained in later sections.
