Perform Virtual Lab Experiments on Embibe

While studying Science, memorising the theory is not enough. Students need to ensure that they are aware how the theory is proven. For this purpose, students can take to performing experiments. However, students always do not get an opportunity to experience a real-life like setting for performing the experiments, and more often than not, these experiments cannot be performed under certain conditions. In such cases, students turn to a digital setup for performing EMBIBE lab experiments . 

Students can perform the virtual experiments with complete ease on Embibe. The AI-powered technology enables students of all classes to conduct experiments. With real-life-like examples, students get to understand why a particular theory comes into existence. Furthermore, it also enables the students to understand the concepts in a better way. All the experiments are explained to the students visually on Embibe.

Embibe Lab Experiments Modules

Embibe Lab Experiments is a useful tool for students to learn and practice laboratory experiments in a convenient, safe, and interactive environment. It contains three modules that act as the learning, practice and test features. The introduction module introduces students to what the experiment is about. The practice experiment module allows them to conduct it in a step-wise manner. The Evaluation module tests students’ understanding of the concept. Thus, students get 360-degree coverage of a topic. All three Embibe Lab Experiment modules are detailed below:

  • Introduction Videos: From the Introduction module, students can select the aim and apparatus for the experiment. Here, students get acquainted with the experimental setup. On starting the video, students can choose the objects and tools and choose the measurements. The ‘Theory’ part covers the concept associated with the experiment. It lists each experiment’s Aim, Apparatus, Theory, Procedure, and Precautions. Thus, students know exactly what, how and when to do it.
  • Practice Experiments: An interesting app feature, the Practice Experiments module, allows students to select the materials required to perform the sample experiment. Embibe also helps students pick the correct apparatus before they start the experiment. On clicking any apparatus, the information is displayed on the screen. Afterwards, students are guided with step-wise instructions to perform the experiment. They can also see the number of steps involved in completing the experiment. They can watch any experiment until they gain confidence in the concept.
  • Evaluation: The Evaluation module is a test based on the experiment. It includes a set of questions. Each question has 4 four options from which students must choose the correct one. On clicking the correct answer, students get a solution with an explanation. They can re-practice evaluation for the same questions.

Types of Embibe Lab Experiments: Overview

Embibe offers a range of interactive experiments covering topics such as physics, chemistry, and biology. These interactive experiments allow students to manipulate variables, measure and record data, and observe changes in reactions. The virtual lab also provides real-time feedback to students on their performance during the experiments. The Embibe virtual lab is a valuable resource for students to improve their understanding and skills in laboratory experiments.

Here are some examples of the experiments available on the Embibe platform: 

  • Electrolysis of Water: This experiment allows students to explore the process of electrolysis by using a battery and electrodes to break water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen gases.
  • Acid-Base Titration: This experiment involves using a pH meter and various indicators to determine the concentration of an acid or base in a solution. 
  • Photosynthesis: This experiment allows students to learn about the process of photosynthesis by observing changes in the color of leaves when exposed to different light sources.
  • Pendulum Motion: This experiment involves studying the motion of a pendulum by measuring the period and frequency of its oscillations.

10 Most Popular CBSE Class 12 Chemistry Investigatory Project Topics  

Because you have less time to study for your board examinations, it is best to prepare your chemistry project so that it is easy to explain. The most common chemistry project for class 12 is described here. 

Adsorption  

A process that leads to the transfer of a substance from fluid bulk to a solid surface, because of the forces of chemical bonds is called Adsorption. In this, the gaseous or liquid particles bind to a solid surface called adsorbate and form a molecular or atomic adsorbate film. Adsorption is usually a reversible process and in most cases, it is described at equilibrium which quantifies the amount which is equal to the amount of substance attached to the surface given and the concentration in the fluid. This is a popular concept among students for the chemistry project for class 12. 

Synthesis of Aspirin 

One of the choicest Chemistry projects for class 12 students is the making of Aspirin which is a common name for a compound named acetylsalicylic acid, majorly used as a pain killer in our day-to-day use. It is derived from salicylic acid, which is a natural product originating from the bark extracts of the willow family of plants, and was earlier used as a home remedy for curing headaches and fever. As the salicylic acid is bitter and irritating for the stomach, it is administered in the form of aspirin which proves to be less irritating.

Analysis of Fertilizer 

Aim: The objective of this experiment is to examine the refractive index of water using a travelling microscope. 

Theory: Refraction is a phenomenon when the direction of light changes while traveling from one transparent medium to another. A refractive index is measured by calculating the ratio of the velocity of light from one medium to another.  

Requirements:  A beaker, a paper piece, a coin, and a traveling microscope. 

Effect of Potassium Bisulphate as a Food Preservative 

Aim: The objective of this project is to analyze the effect of Potassium bisulfite as a food preservative under different conditions. 

Theory: Different food materials undergo natural changes due to environmental factors like temperature, time, and enzymes which make them decayed or inconsumable. The use of potassium bisulphite (KHSO3) effectively can preserve the food material by checking its concentration under different conditions. 

Requirements: Beaker, glass bottles, balance, peeler, pestle and mortar, fresh fruits, knife, potassium bisulphite and sugar. 

Sterilization of Water Using Bleaching Powder 

Aim: The following experiment is conducted to determine the quantity of bleaching powder required for the sterilization or purification of different samples of water. 

Theory: Bleaching powder or Calcium hypochlorite [Ca(ClO)] is a very common way to disinfect drinking water with accurate scientific details. By using 5 drops of bleaching power for 2 litres of water, the chemical is set to sit for half an hour which can then make it safe for drinking. Bleaching powder also reacts with decaying levels and has lesser health risks than other chemical compounds like THMs. 

Requirements: 250ml measuring flask, weight box, Burette, titration flask, 100ml graduated cylinder glazed tile, glass wool, bleaching Powder, 10% KI solution, Glass wool, Sodium thiosulfate solution (0.1 N Na2S2O3), different samples of water, starch solution.

Aim: To extract essential oil present in  Ajwain (Carum), Illaichi (Cardamom), and Saunf (Fennel Seeds) 

Theory: Essential oils have pleasant odours and are used are flavouring agents in food. They comprise complex mixtures and are also useful in insecticides and medical purposes. They are mostly concentrated in seeds or flowers but can be extracted from plants by steam distillation which reduces the risk of decomposition of essential oils.  

Requirements: Round bottom flask (500 ml), conical flask, Steam generator (Copper Vessel),  condenser, glass tubes, iron stand, sand bath, separatory funnel, tripod stands, burners, Ajwain(Carum), Petroleum ether(60-80°C), Saunf(Aniseed). 

Presence of Oxalate Ions in Guava Fruit and Different Stages of Ripening 

Aim: To analyze the presence of oxalate ions in guava fruit and different stages of ripening. 

Theory: Carboxylic acids- primarily found in animals and plants- are produced in our body by the conversion of Vitamin C to oxalate. Excessive oxalate in our urine can cause hyperoxaluria (kidney stones). 

Requirements: 100ml. Measuring flask burette, pestle and mortar, beaker, funnel, weighing machine, papers, filter, dilute H2SO4, L (N /10) KMnO4 solution. 

Quantity of Presence of Casein in Different Samples of Milk 

Aim: To analyze the Quantity the presence of casein in different samples of milk. 

Theory: Caseins are proteins found in milk and the most common form is sodium caseinate. When milk is kept out for a long time, the bacteria present convert it into lactic acid, making it sour. The casein of milk starts precipitating in acidic conditions.

15. Why does a tetrahedral complex of the type [Ma 2 B 2 ] not show geometrical isomerism?

Ans. Because the relative position of ligand A and B are same with respect to each other in the tetrahedral complex [Ma 2 b 2 ], so it does not show geometrical isomerism.

16. Why do compounds having similar geometry have different magnetic moment?

Ans. The compounds having similar geometry may have different number of unpaired electrons due to the presence of weak and strong field ligands in complexes. If CFSE is high, the complex will show low value of magnetic moment. For example, the [CoF 6 ] 3+ is paramagnetic moment but [Co(NH 3 ) 6 ] 3+ is diamagnetic.

1. introduction.

Coordination compounds are extremely important. It is important to recognize that life would not have been possible without the presence of chlorophyll (Mg - complex) in plants and haemoglobin (Fe- complex) in human blood. The study of these compounds will broaden our understanding of chemical bonding and the physical properties of coordination compounds such as magnetic properties.

2. Molecular or Addition Compounds 

When a solution containing two or more simple stable compounds in molecular proportions is allowed to evaporate, it produces crystals of new substances known as molecular or addition compounds.

2.1 Types of Molecular Compounds 

2.1.1 double salt .

A double salt is a substance formed by combining two different salts that crystallize as a single substance but ionize as two distinct salts when dissolved in water. These salts lose their identity in solution, which means that when dissolved in water, they test positive for all of the ions present in the salt. eg. Mohr's salt, potash alum.

$\mathop {{\text{FeS}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}{\text{.}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{4}}}} \right)}_{\text{2}}}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}{\text{.6}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O }}}\limits_{{\text{Mohr's salt }}}  \to {\text{ F}}{{\text{e}}^{{\text{2 + }}}}_{\left( {aq} \right)}{\text{ +  6}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O  +  2N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{4}}}{^{\text{ + }}_{\left( {aq} \right)}}{\text{  +  2S}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}{^{{\text{2--}}}_{\left( {aq} \right)}}$

2.2 Coordination Compounds 

A coordination compound is a molecular compound formed by the combination of two or more simple molecular compounds that retains its identity both solid and dissolved.

$\left[ {{\text{Cu}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}} \rightleftharpoons {\left[ {{\text{Cu}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]^{2 + }}{\text{  +  S}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}^{2 - }$

3. Coordination Compounds 

A ligand, a central atom, a complex ion, a cation, or an anion make up a coordination compound. In general, the complex ion is written in a square box, and the ion (cation or anion) is written outside the complex ion. 

$\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}{\text{ }}} \right]{\text{ C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{ }}$

$\left[ {{\text{Complex ion}}} \right]{\text{ anion}}$ 

General Formula: ${{\text{A}}_{\text{x}}}\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{n}}}} \right]{\text{/}}\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{n}}}} \right]{{\text{B}}_{\text{y}}}$ where M is the central metal atom/ion, L is the ligand, A is the cation and B is the anion.

Some Important Terms Pertaining to Coordination Compounds 

3.1 coordination entity .

It is the fixed central metal atom or ion that is bonded to a specific number of ions or molecules. Six ammonia molecules, for example, are surrounded by three chloride ions in $\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{,}}$ a coordination entity. 

3.2 Central Atom/Ion 

In a specific geometrical arrangement, it is the central cation that is surrounded and coordinately bonded to one or more neutral molecules or negatively charged ions. In the complex $\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{,}}$ for example, ${\text{C}}{{\text{o}}^{{\text{3 + }}}}$ is the central metal ion that is positively charged and is coordinately bonded to six neutral NH 3 molecules within the coordination sphere. The central metal/ion is also known as Lewis acid.

3.3 Ligands 

Ligands are ions or molecules that are bound to the coordination entity's central atom/ion. These can be simple ions like ${\text{C}}{{\text{l}}^{\text{--}}}{\text{,}}$ small molecules like ${{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O or N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{,}}$ or larger molecules like ${{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{NC}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{C}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{.}}$

3.4 Coordination Number (C.N) 

The number of atoms in the ligands that are directly bound to the central metal atom or ion by coordinate bonds is known as the metal atoms or ion's coordination number. It is also the same as secondary valency.

${{\text{Complex }}} and {{\text{ Coordination number}}}$ 

${{{\text{K}}_{\text{4}}}\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6 }}}} \right]} and {\text{ 6}}$

${{{\left[ {{\text{Ag}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{2}}}} \right]}^ - }}{\text{2}}$ 

${\left[ {{\text{Pt}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{2}}}{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}} \right]}{\text{4}}$

${{{\left[ {{\text{Ca}}\left( {{\text{EDTA}}} \right)} \right]}^{2 - }}}{\text{6}}$ 

3.5 Coordination Sphere 

A square bracket surrounds the central metal atom or ion and the ligands that are directly attached to it. This was known as the coordination sphere or the first sphere of attraction. Because the metal ion tightly holds the ligands in the coordination sphere, it behaves as a single unit.

Coordination sphere

Coordination sphere

3.6 Coordination Polyhedron 

The spatial arrangement of the ligand atoms that are directly attached to the central atom/ion is referred to as a coordination polyhedron. ${\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]^{{\text{3 + }}}}{\text{,}}$ for example, is octahedral, $\left[ {{\text{Ni}}{{\left( {{\text{CO}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]$ is tetrahedral, and ${\left[ {{\text{PtC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}}} \right]_{\text{2}}}$ is square planar.

3.7 Oxidation Number of Central Metal Atom 

It is defined as the charge that the central metal ion would have if all ligands and electron pairs were removed. It is computed as follows:

${{\text{K}}_{\text{4}}}\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right] \to 4{{\text{K}}^ + } + {\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]^{4 - }}$

Charge on the complex ion is -4.

Let charge on Fe be x.

Now, the charge on cyanide ions is -1.

$\Rightarrow x + 6 \times \left( { - 1} \right) =  - 4$

$\Rightarrow x =  + 2 $ 

Hence, the oxidation number of Fe is +2 (II).

3.8 Homoleptic and Heteroleptic Complexes 

Homoleptic complexes are those in which the central atom is coordinated with only one type of ligand, such as ${\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_6}} \right]^{{\text{3 + }}}}{\text{.}}$ Hetroleptic complexes are those in which the central atom is coordinated with more than one type of ligand, such as ${\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_4}{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_2}} \right]^{\text{ + }}}{\text{.}}$

4. Nomenclature of Coordination Compounds 

4.1 nomenclature .

The Following Rules are Followed When Naming a Complex Ion: 

Cations are named first, followed by anions.

The central metal ion's oxidation state (O.S.) is denoted by a Roman numeral.

The ligand names are listed first, followed by the name of the central metal ion.

Anion ligand names that end in 'ide' are changed to 'o', 'ite' are changed to 'ito' and 'ate' are changed to 'ato'

The unmodified name is used for many ligands that are molecules.

Positive groups are terminated by –ium. For example: $\mathop {\text{N}}\limits^{ \cdot  \cdot } {{\text{H}}_2} - {\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_3}^ + $ hydrazinium.

When there are multiple ligands of the same type, the prefixes di, tri, tetra, penta, and hexa are used to indicate the number of ligands of that type. An exception occurs when the name of the ligand contains a number, as in ethylenediamine (en). To avoid confusion, bis, tris, and tetrakis are used instead of di, tri, and tetra, and the ligand name is enclosed in brackets. as in bis (ethylenediamine)

If anion is a complex, metal is followed by 'ate'. 

${\left[ {{\text{Ni}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_4}} \right]^{2 - }}$: tetracyanonickelate (II) ion 

Lead – plumbate 

Gold – aurate 

Zinc – zincate 

Tin – stannate 

Silver – argentate 

Cobalt – cobaltate 

Iron – ferrate 

Aluminium – aluminate 

Manganese – manganate 

Copper – cuprate 

Chromium – chromate 

Platinum – platinate 

A complex is said to be polynuclear if it contains two or more metal atoms. The prefix – $\mu $ denotes the bridging ligands that connect the two metal atoms.

Ambidentate ligands can be connected via different atoms.– 

${\text{M}} \leftarrow {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}$

${\text{M}} \leftarrow {\text{ONO}}$ 

When writing (not naming) the complex formula: 

Complex ion should be enclosed by square brackets and 

Ligands are placed alphabetically after metal, but first negative ligands, then neutral, then positive.

5. Werner’s Theory 

Werner explained the nature of bonding in complexes and came to the conclusion that the metal in complexes has two different types of valency. 

5.1 Primary Valency 

The oxidation state of the central metal atom or ion determines the primary valency. These are asymmetrical.

Example: What are the primary valency of ${{\text{K}}_4}\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{ and  }}\left[ {{\text{Cu}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}$?

The primary valency of ${{\text{K}}_4}\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{ and  }}\left[ {{\text{Cu}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{4}}}$ is 2.

5.2 Secondary Valency 

Secondary valency refers to the number of ligand atoms that are co-ordinated to the central metal atom. Because these are directional, a complex ion has a specific shape.

Example: What are the secondary valency of $\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{ and  }}{{\text{K}}_{\text{4}}}\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]$ ? 

Sol. The secondary valency in $\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}$ is 6. 

${{\text{K}}_{\text{4}}}\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]$: six ligands are coordinated to Fe. As a result, the secondary valency is 6. Ions attached to complex ions satisfy the primary valency. It is represented by dotted lines. Ionisable valency is another name for primary valency. The ligands satisfy the secondary valency; they are non-ionisable and are represented by a solid line $\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}$ 

An anion found in the co-ordination and ionization sphere is represented by …….. 

Every element is capable of satisfying both its primary and secondary valencies. When a negative ion is present in the coordination sphere, it exhibits dual behavior. It has the potential to satisfy both primary and secondary valencies.

The ligands that satisfy the secondary valencies are aimed at specific locations in space. The coordination number determines the geometry of the complex ion. If the metal has coordination number 6, the complex is octahedral, which means that six donor atoms of the ligands occupy six positions around the metal octahedrally. If, on the other hand, the coordination number is 4, the complex's geometry can be tetrahedral or square planar. This postulate predicted that different types of isomerism would exist in coordination compounds.

6. Effective Atomic Number (Ean) 

Sidgwick proposed effective atomic number (EAN), which is defined as the number of electrons gained by the metal atom or ion after gaining electrons from the donor atoms of the ligands. In some cases, the effective atomic number (EAN) coincides with the atomic number of the next inert gas. The following relationship is used to calculate EAN: 

EAN = Atomic number of the metal – number of electrons lost in ion formation + number of electrons gained from the donor atoms of the ligands. (2 × CN) 

The EAN Values of Various Metals in Their Complexes Are Listed Below:

7. Valence Bond Theory 

Valence Bond Theory (VBT) can explain the bonding in coordination compounds because the d orbitals of the majority of transition metal complexes are incomplete. Valence bond considers orbital hybridization because penultimate d-orbitals are close in energy to s and p-orbitals of the outermost shell, allowing for various types of hybridization.

The Following Assumption is Made by VBT:

The central metal ion has a number of empty orbitals that can accept electrons donated by the ligands. The coordination number of the metal ion for the specific complex is equal to the number of empty d-orbitals. 

Strong bonds are formed when the metal orbitals and ligand orbitals overlap. The greater the extent of overlapping, the more stable the complex. Different orbitals (s, p, or d) hybridize to form a set of equivalent hybridized orbitals that participate in ligand bonding.

Each ligand contributes two electrons to the central metal ion/atom. 

The inner orbitals contain non-bonding metal electrons that do not participate in chemical bonding.

A complex is paramagnetic if it contains unpaired electrons. The complex is diamagnetic if it does not contain an unpaired electron.

Under the influence of a strong ligand (CN, CO), electrons can be forced to pair up, thereby violating Hund's rule of multiplicity.

Note: Inner d-orbitals (3d orbital) have been used for bonding in $\mathrm{d}^{2} \mathrm{sp}^{3}$ hybridisation; such complexes are known as inner orbital complexes or low spin complexes. The outer d-orbitals (4d orbital) have been used for bonding in $\mathrm{sp}^{3} \mathrm{~d}^{2}$ hybridisation; such complexes are known as outer orbital complexes or high spin complexes. $\sqrt {n\left( {n + 2} \right)} $ where n is the number of unpaired electrons, gives the magnetic moment.

7.1 Limitations of VBT 

The change in ligand and metal ion properties could not be explained.

The valence bond theory is silent on why some complexes are more labile than others.

The VBT does not explain the existence of inner and outer orbital complexes satisfactorily.

The VBT was unable to explain the color of complexes.

8. Crystal Field Theory

The valence bond theory is less widely accepted than the Crystal Field Theory. It is assumed that the attraction between a complex's central metal and its ligands is purely electrostatic. The following assumptions are made in the crystal field.

Ligands are considered point charges.

Metal orbitals and ligand orbitals have no interaction.

In the free atom, all of the d orbitals on the metal have the same energy (that is, they are degenerate). However, when a complex is formed, the ligands destroy the degeneracy of these orbitals, resulting in different energies for the orbitals.

Degeneracy of d-orbital

Degeneracy of d-orbital

8.1 Octahedral Complexes 

The metal is at the center of an octahedral complex, and the ligands are at the six corners. As shown, the directions x, y, and z point to three adjacent corners of the octahedron. The lobes of the ${{\text{e}}_g}{\text{ and }}{{\text{d}}_{{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ - }}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}}}{\text{, }}{{\text{d}}_{{{\text{z}}^2}}}$ orbitals point along the x, y, and z axes and the lobes of the t2g ${{\text{t}}_{2g}}{\text{ and }}{{\text{d}}_{{\text{xy}}}}{\text{, }}{{\text{d}}_{{\text{xz}}}}{\text{, }}{{\text{d}}_{{\text{yz}}}}$  are located between the axes. The approach of six ligands along the x, y, z, –x, –y, and –z directions increases the energy of the ${{\text{d}}_{{{\text{x}}^{\text{2}}}{\text{ - }}{{\text{y}}^{\text{2}}}}}{\text{ and }}{{\text{d}}_{{{\text{z}}^2}}}$ orbitals (which point along the axes) much more than the energy of the dxy, d xz, and d yz orbitals (which point between the axes). Thus, the d orbitals split into two groups under the influence of an octahedral ligand field.

Weak field ligands are those that cause only a minor amount of crystal field splitting. Strong field ligands are ligands that cause a large splitting. The common ligands can be arranged in ascending crystal field splitting $\Delta .$

A pattern of increasing donation is followed:

$\text { Halide donors }<\mathrm{O} \text { donors }<\mathrm{N} \text { donors }<\mathrm{C} \text { donors }$

The total crystal field stabilization energy is given by

 ${\text{CFS}}{{\text{E}}_{\left( {{\text{octahedral}}} \right)}} =  - 0.4{n_{\left( {{t_{2g}}} \right)}} + 0.6{n_{\left( {{e_g}} \right)}}$

where ${n_{{t_{2g}}}}{\text{ and }}{n_{{e_g}}}$ are the number of electrons occupying the$t_{2g}$ and $e_g$ orbitals respectively. The CFSE is zero for ions with $d^0$ and $d^{10}$ configurations in both strong and weak ligand fields. The CFSE is also zero for $d^5$ configurations in a weak field.

8.2 Tetrahedral Complexes 

A cube is related to a regular tetrahedron. As shown, one atom is in the center of the cube, and four of the cube's eight corners are occupied by ligands.

Degeneracy of d-orbital in tetrahedral complex

Degeneracy of d-orbital in tetrahedral complex

The directions x, y, and z point to the cube's face centers. The e orbitals are oriented along the x, y, and z axes (that is to the centres of the faces). The t 2 orbitals are located between the x, y, and z axes (that is towards the centres of the edges of the cube). The ligands' approach directions do not exactly coincide with the e or t 2 orbitals.

As a result, the t 2 orbitals are closer to the ligand direction than the e orbitals. The ligands' approach raises the energy of both sets of orbitals. Because they are closest to the ligands, the energy of the t 2 orbitals is increased the most. The crystal field splitting in octahedral complexes is the inverse of that in octahedral complexes.

The t 2 orbitals are $0.4{\Delta _t}$  higher than the weighted average energy of the two groups (the Bari center), while the e orbitals are $0.6{\Delta _t}$ lower.

In tetrahedral complexes, the magnitude of the crystal field splitting t is much smaller than in octahedral fields. This is due to two factors:

Because there are only four ligands rather than six, the ligand field is only two-thirds the size; consequently, the ligand field splitting is also two-thirds the size.

The orbital direction does not coincide with the ligand direction. This reduces the crystal field splitting by about two-thirds.

Thus the tetrahedral crystal field splitting ${\Delta _t}$ is roughly 2/3 × 2/3 = 4/9 of the octahedral crystal field splitting ${\Delta _t}.$

9. Organometallic Compounds 

Organometallic compounds are those that contain at least one carbon-metal bond. The Grignard reagent, RMgX, is a well-known example of an organometallic compound in which $\mathrm{R}$ is an alkyl group. Organometallic compounds include diethyl zinc $\left[\mathrm{Zn}\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5}\right)_{2}\right]$, lead tetraethyl $\left[\mathrm{Pb}\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5}\right)_{4}\right]$, ferrocene $\left[\mathrm{Fe}\left(\mathrm{C}_{5} \mathrm{H}_{5}\right)_{2}\right]$, dibenzene chromium $\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{6}\right)_{2}\right]$, and metal carbonyls. Organometallic compounds are divided into three types:

Complexes with the sigma $\left( \sigma  \right)$

Bonded complexes of Pi $\left( \pi  \right)$

Complexes with both sigma and pi bonding properties.

9.1 Sigma Bonded Complexes 

The metal atom and carbon atom of the ligand are joined together with a sigma bond in these complexes, i.e., the ligand contributes one electron and is thus referred to as a one electron donor.

Grignard reagent, $R-M g-X$, where $R$ is an alkyl or aryl group and $X$ is halogen.

Zinc compounds with the formula $\mathrm{R}_{2} \mathrm{Zn}$, for example, $\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5}\right)_{2} \mathrm{Zn}$. Frankland was the first to isolate this in 1849 . Other comparable compounds include $\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{4} \mathrm{Sn},\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5}\right)_{4} \mathrm{~Pb}$, $\mathrm{Al}_{2}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{6}, \mathrm{Al}_{2}\left(\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5}\right)_{6}$, and $\mathrm{Pb}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}\right)_{4}$

9.2 Pi Bonded Organometallic Compounds 

These are the compounds of metals that are combined with alkenes, alkynes, benzene, and other ring compounds. In these complexes, the metal and ligand form a bond that involves the pi electrons of the ligand. Three common examples are Zeise’s salt, ferrocene and dibenzene chromium. These are shown here :

Pi bonded organometallic compounds

Pi bonded organometallic compounds

9.3 Sigma– and Pi–Bonded Organometallic Compounds 

This class includes metal carbonyls, which are compounds formed by combining metal and carbon monoxide. These compounds have sigma and pi bonding. Metal atoms in these compounds have no oxidation state. Carbonyls can be monomeric, bridged, or polynuclear in nature.

Sigma– and pi–bonded carbonyl compounds

Sigma– and pi–bonded carbonyl compounds

The metal–carbon bond in a metal carbonyl has both the sigma– and pi–character. When a vacant hybrid orbital of the metal atom overlaps with an orbital on the C atom of carbon monoxide containing a lone pair of electrons, a sigma bond is formed.

Sigma– overlap in carbonyl compounds

Sigma– overlap in carbonyl compounds

When a filled orbital of a metal atom overlaps with a vacant antibonding pi* orbital of a carbon monoxide atom, a pi–bond is formed. This overlap is also known as metal atom back donation of electrons to carbon. As an example, consider the following:

pi– overlap in carbonyl compounds

pi– overlap in carbonyl compounds

The pi–overlap is perpendicular to the sigma–bond nodal plane.

In olefinic complexes, bonding pi–orbital electrons are donated to the metal atoms' empty orbital while back bonding occurs from the metal atoms' filled orbital to the antibonding pi–orbital of the olefin.

10. Isomerism 

Isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but a different structural formula.

10.1 Structural Isomerism 

10.1.1 ionisation isomerism : .

This isomerism occurs when the coordination compounds produce different ions in solution. For example, the formula has two isomers.

$\underset{violet}{[Co(NH_3)_5Br]SO_4} \rightleftharpoons \underset{Pentaamine Bromide}{[Co(NH_3)_5Br]^{2+}} - cobalt(III)\,\, ion + {So_4}^{2-}$

This isomer produces a white precipitate of $BaSO_4$ in a solution of $BaCl_2$.

$\underset{Red}{[Co(NH_3)_5 SO_4]Br} \rightleftharpoons \underset{Pentaamine  Sulphato}{[Co(NH_3)_5SO_4]^{+}} - cobalt(III)\,\, ion + {Br}^{-}$ With $\mathrm{AgNO}_{3}$ solution, the above isomer produces a light yellow precipitate.

10.1.2 Hydrate Isomerism: 

When different numbers of water molecules are present inside and outside the coordination sphere, this type of isomerism occurs. This isomerism is best exemplified by the three isomers with the formula ${\text{CrC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{.6}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}{\text{.}}$

$\left[ {{\text{Cr}}{{\left( {{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{ , }}\left[ {{\text{Cr}}{{\left( {{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}} \right)}_{\text{5}}}{\text{Cl}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{.}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O, and }}\left[ {{\text{Cr}}{{\left( {{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}} \right]{\text{Cl}}{\text{.2}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}$ are its Hydrate Isomers. 

10.1.3 Coordination Isomerism: 

This type of isomerism can be found in coordination compounds that contain both cationic and anionic complex ions. To form isomers, the ligands in both the cationic and anionic ions are exchanged. Here are some examples:

$\left[ {{\text{Pt}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]\left[ {{\text{CuC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}}} \right]{\text{ and }}\left[ {{\text{Cu}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]\left[ {{\text{PtC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}}} \right]$

10.1.4 Linkage Isomerism: 

This isomerism occurs in complex compounds containing ambidentate ligands such as ${\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{, C}}{{\text{N}}^{\text{ - }}}{\text{, SC}}{{\text{N}}^{\text{ - }}}{\text{, }}{{\text{S}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}_3^{2 - }{\text{, and CO}}{\text{.}}$ For example, $\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{5}}}{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{ and }}\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{5}}}{\text{ONO}}} \right]{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}$ are linkage isomers because ${\text{NO}}_{\text{2}}^{\text{ - }}$ can be linked via N or O.

10.1.5 Ligand Isomerism: 

Some ligands can exist as isomers; for example, diamino propane can exist as both 1, 2-diamino propane (pn) and 1, 3-diamino propane, also known as trimethylene diamine (tn).

When these ligands (pn and tn) combine to form complexes, the complexes are isomers of each other. This ligand is found in isomeric complexes such as ${\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{pn}}} \right)}_{\text{2}}}{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}} \right]^{\text{ + }}}{\text{ and }}{\left[ {{\text{Co}}{{\left( {{\text{tn}}} \right)}_{\text{2}}}{\text{C}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}} \right]^{\text{ + }}}$ ions. 

10.1.6 Coordination Position Isomerism: 

This type of isomerism is exhibited by polynuclear complexes by changing the position of ligands with respect to different metal atoms present in the complex. For example, 

Coordination position isomerism

Coordination position isomerism

10.2 Stereo Isomerism 

Compounds with stereo isomerism have the same number of atoms or groups in the same position, but the atoms or groups are arranged differently around the central atom.

10.2.1 Geometrical Isomerism 

Complex compounds with the same ligands in the coordination sphere but different relative positions of the ligands around the central metal atom are referred to as geometrical isomers, and the phenomenon is referred to as geometrical isomerism.

10.2.1.1 Geometrical Isomerism in Square Planar Complexes 

A square planar complex with two similar ligands at opposite positions (180 o a part) is called a trans-isomer, while a square planar complex with two similar ligands at adjacent positions (90 o a part) is called a cis - isomer.

11. Stability Of Coordination Compounds 

The degree of association between the two species involved in the state of equilibrium is referred to as the stability of a complex in solution. If we get a reaction like this:${\text{M  +  4L\;}} \rightleftharpoons {\text{\;M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{4}}}$

The greater the stability constant, the greater the proportion of ML 4 in solution. Because free metal ions are rare in solution, M is usually surrounded by solvent molecules, which compete with and eventually replace the ligand molecules, L. To keep things simple, we ignore the solvent molecules and write the four stability constants as follows:

${\text{M  +  L }} \rightleftharpoons {\text{ ML    }}{{\text{K}}_{\text{1}}}{\text{  =  }}\left[ {{\text{ML}}} \right]{\text{/}}\left[ {\text{M}} \right]\left[ {\text{L}} \right]$

${\text{ML  +  L }} \rightleftharpoons {\text{ M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{ }}{{\text{K}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{  =  }}\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{2}}}} \right]{\text{/}}\left[ {{\text{ML}}} \right]\left[ {\text{L}} \right]$

${\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{  +  L }} \rightleftharpoons {\text{ M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{ }}{{\text{K}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{  =  }}\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{3}}}} \right]{\text{/}}\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{2}}}} \right]\left[ {\text{L}} \right]$

${\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{  +  L }} \rightleftharpoons {\text{ M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{4}}}{\text{   }}{{\text{K}}_{\text{4}}}{\text{  =  }}\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{4}}}} \right]{\text{/}}\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{3}}}} \right]\left[ {\text{L}} \right]$ 

where $\mathrm{K}_{1}, \mathrm{~K}_{2}$, etc are known as stepwise stability constants. Alternatively, we can express the overall stability constant as follows:

${\text{M  +  4L }} \rightleftharpoons {\text{ M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{4}}}{\text{  }}{{\text{\beta }}_4} = \left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{4}}}} \right]/\left[ {\text{M}} \right]{\left[ {\text{L}} \right]^4}$

12. Importance and Applications of Coordination Compounds 

Analytical chemistry: .

The analytical applications of coordination chemistry are in 

a. Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis : 

Metal ions react with a variety of ligands to form colored coordination compounds. These reactions are used to detect metal ions. The formed colored complexes can be used to estimate metals using traditional or instrumental methods such as gravimetry or colorimetry. The following are some examples:

The addition of potassium ferrocyanide solution detects the presence of iron ions ($Fe^{3+}$), resulting in the formation of the Prussian blue complex. 

${\text{F}}{{\text{e}}^{{\text{2 + }}}}{\text{  +  }}{{\text{K}}_{\text{3}}}{\text{ Fe}}{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)_{{\text{6\;}}}} \to {\text{KFe}}\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]{\text{  +  2}}{{\text{K}}^{\text{ + }}}$

b. Volumetric Analysis: 

Titration with EDTA can be used to determine the hardness of water. $\mathrm{Ca}^{2+}$ and $\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}$, the metal ions that cause hardness, form stable complexes with EDTA.

Metal Extraction and Purification:

Metals such as silver and gold are extracted by forming water-soluble cyanide complexes with the ore. By adding zinc to the solution, pure gold can be extracted. Metals can also be purified by forming and then decomposing their coordination compounds. For example, after extraction, impure nickel can be converted to pure nickel by first converting it to nickel carbonyl and then decomposing it.

Catalysts for coordination compounds are used in critical commercial processes. For example, 

In the formation of polyethene, the Ziegler-Natta catalyst ($TiCl_4$ and trialkyl aluminium) is used as a catalyst.

In the hydrogenation of alkenes, the Wilkinson catalyst - $\operatorname{RhCl}\left(\mathrm{PPh}_{3}\right)_{3}$ is used.

Various rhodium complexes, such as $\left[\mathrm{Rh}(\mathrm{CO})_{2} \mathrm{I}_{2}\right],\left[\mathrm{Rh}(\mathrm{Cl})(\mathrm{CO})\left(\mathrm{PPh}_{3}\right)_{2}\right]$, or $\left[\mathrm{Rh}(\mathrm{Cl})(\mathrm{CO})_{2}\right]_{2}$ are used as catalysts in the Monsanto acetic acid process in the presence of $\mathrm{CH}_{3} \mathrm{l}, \mathrm{I}_{2}$, or HI as activator.

Electroplating: 

Gold, silver, and copper coordination compounds are used as components in baths used for electroplating articles made of other metals with these metals. $\mathrm{K}\left[\mathrm{Ag}(\mathrm{CN})_{2}\right]$ is used as an electrolyte in silver plating; $\mathrm{K}\left[\mathrm{Au}(\mathrm{CN})_{2}\right]$ is used as an electrolyte in gold plating; and $\mathrm{K}_{3}$ $\left[\mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{CN})_{4}\right]$ is used as an electrolyte in copper plating.

Coordination complexes are important biological compounds. Chlorophyll, for example, is a $\mathrm{Mg}^{2+}$ complex. This green pigment is essential for photosynthesis in plants. Similarly, haemoglobin, the red pigment found in blood, is a $\mathrm{Fe}^{2+}$ coordination complex, and vitamin B12, an essential nutrient, is a $\mathrm{Co}^{3+}$ complex.

6. Medicinal uses: In the treatment of metal poisoning, complexing or chelating agents are used, in which a coordination complex is formed between the toxic metal in excess metal and the complexing agent. EDTA, for example, is used to treat lead poisoning. When EDTA is injected intravenously into the bloodstream, it traps lead, forming a compound that is excreted in the urine. Mercury, arsenic, aluminum, chromium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, selenium, zinc, tin, and thallium are other heavy metal poisonings that can be treated similarly with chelation therapy. Similarly, D-penicillamine and desferrioxamine B, chelating ligands, are used to remove excess copper and iron, respectively.

13. Coordination Compounds and Complex Ions 

Coordination compounds are those in which the central metal atom is linked to a number of ligands (ions or neutral molecules) via coordinate bonds, i.e. by these ligands donating lone pairs of electrons to the central metal atom ion.

If such a compound has a positive or negative charge, it is referred to as a complex ion, for example, ${\left[ {{\text{Fe}}{{\left( {{\text{CN}}} \right)}_{\text{6}}}} \right]^{{\text{4--}}}}{\text{, }}{\left[ {{\text{Cu}}{{\left( {{\text{N}}{{\text{H}}_{\text{3}}}} \right)}_{\text{4}}}} \right]^{{\text{2 + }}}}{\text{.}}$ Hence Co-ordination compounds are also those that contain complex ions, such as $K_4 [Fe(CN)_6]$, $[Cu(NH_3)_4]SO_4$, and so on. In general, a complex ion is denoted by  ${\left[ {{\text{M}}{{\text{L}}_{\text{n}}}} \right]^{ \pm x}}$ where M is the metal ion, L represents ligands, n is the coordination number of metal ion and x is the net charge on the complex. 

Four types of complexes are shown below:

Cation as complex ion, (carrying a net positive charge) e.g., $\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{6}\right]^{3+}$ in $\left[\mathrm{Cr}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{6}\right.$ ] $\mathrm{Cl}_{3} .$

Anion as complex ion, (carrying a net negative charge) e.g., $\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}$ in $\mathrm{K}_{3}\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]$.

Cation and anion both as complex ions. Carrying both positive and negative change.

For e.g., $\left[\mathrm{Pt}(\mathrm{Py})_{4}\right]\left[\mathrm{PtCl}_{4}\right]$

Neutral complex (A complex carrying no net charge) e.g., $\left[\mathrm{Ni}(\mathrm{CO})_{4}\right]$ etc.

14. Terminology of Coordination Compounds 

14.1 centre of coordination (central atom/ion or acceptor atom/ion): .

The centre of coordination is the cation or neutral atom to which one or more ligands (neutral molecules or anions) are attached or coordinated. As an acceptor, the central atom/ion must have empty orbitals in order to accommodate electron pairs donated by the ligand's donor atom. This explains why transition metals with empty d-orbitals readily form coordination compounds. 

For example in the complexes $\left[\mathrm{Ni}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right) 6\right]^{2+}$ and $\left[(\mathrm{CN})_{6}\right]^{3-}, \mathrm{Ni}^{2+}$ and $\mathrm{Fe}^{3+}$ respectively are the central ions.

14.2 Ligands 

A ligand or coordinating group is an atom, ion, or molecule that can donate at least two electrons to the central atom to form a coordinate bond (or dative linkage). The atom in a ligand that actually donates the electron pair is referred to as the donor atom. The ligands function as Lewis bases by donating one or more electron pairs to the central metal atoms or ions, which function as Lewis acids by accepting electrons.

14.2.1 Types of Ligands: 

Ligands are classified based on how many lone pair electrons they donate to the central metal atom or ion.

Monodentate or Unidentate Ligands: These ligands have a single donor atom that donates only one electron pair to the central metal atom.

Bidentate Ligands: Ligands with two donor atoms and the ability to link with the central metal in two positions are referred to as bidentate ligands.

Tridentate Ligand: The ligands that possess three donor atoms are called tridentate ligands

Tetradentate Ligand: These ligands have four donor atoms.

Pentadentate Ligands: They have five donor atoms

Hexadentate Ligands: They have six donor atoms.

14.2.2 Chelating Ligands: 

A bidentate or polydentate ligand is referred to as a chelating ligand if it forms a cyclic ring structure upon coordination. Chelates are the complexes that result from this process. Chelates with 5 or 6 membered rings are more stable. Due to steric hindrance, larger group ligands form more unstable rings than smaller group ligands.

14.2.3 Ambidentate Ligands: 

The ligands that have two donor atoms but only one donor atom are attached to the metal atom at a time when forming complexes. These ligands are known as ambidentate ligands. As an example:

$\mathrm{M} \leftarrow \mathrm{NO}_{2}$ Nitrito-N

$\mathrm{M} \leftarrow \mathrm{CN}$ Cyano-C

$\mathrm{M} \leftarrow \mathrm{SCN}$ Thiocyanato-S

$\mathrm{M} \leftarrow \mathrm{ONO}$ Nitrito-O

$\mathrm{M} \leftarrow \mathrm{NC}$ Isocyano

$\mathrm{M} \leftarrow \mathrm{NCS}$ Thiocyanato-N

What are Coordination Compounds?

Coordination compounds contain ions or molecules linked or coordinated to a transition metal. A few examples of the coordination compounds include [Ni(H 2 O) 6 ]Cl 2 , [Cr(NH 3 ) 5 (NO 2 )] 2+ . Ag(CN) 2- , CuCl42- are called the coordination complexes or the complex ions. Ligands are the ions or molecules that combine with the transition metal ions to produce these complexes further.

The coordination number of any of the Coordination compounds is given by the total number of ligands that are associated with the transition metal ion. Coordination compounds include substances such as chlorophyll, haemoglobin, vitamin B12, catalysts, and dyes, used in the preparation of the organic substances. The Coordination compounds are also used as catalysts for several biological and industrial processes having much importance in the qualitative and quantitative chemical analysis within the field of analytical chemistry.

Important Applications of the Coordination Compounds

The CMI is pondered as a positive charge.

In the case of anions, the ligands are treated as point charges.

The ligands are regarded as dipoles in the case of neutral molecules.

There is an electrostatic force of attraction between CMI and ligands.

8. What is isomerism in coordination compounds? What are the different types of isomerism?

The phenomenon in which two or more compounds have a different structural formula but have the same molecular formula differing in one or more chemical or physical properties is known as isomerism.

The types of isomerism are:

  • Structural Isomerism
  • Solvate isomerism
  • Linkage isomerism
  • Ionisation isomerism
  • Coordination isomerism
  • Stereoisomerism
  • Optical isomerism

These various types of isomerism are explained in detail in the NCERT book. Students can also download the Notes of Chapter 5 of Class 12 Chemistry free of cost from the vedantu website (vedantu.com).

9. What are the postulates of Werner's Theory of Coordination Compounds?

Beneath are the Postulates of Werner’s Theory of Coordination Compounds:

According to this theory, metals exhibit two types of valencies in coordination compounds. These valencies are primary and secondary.

The primary valencies get fulfilled by negative ions. These valencies are ionisable.

The secondary valencies are regarded as non-ionisable and get fulfilled by the neutral molecules or by negative ions. 

The coordination number is equivalent to the secondary valence and this is fixed for a metal.

There is a spatial arrangement of metal when ions are bounded by secondary linkages.
