What is the Lanthanide contraction?
It is the explanation for why the 6th period transition elements are about the same size as the 5th period transition elements.
It is the process by which transition metals lose their outer s electrons.
It is the formation of a covalent bond through sharing of electrons.
It is the splitting of d-orbital energies in a complex.
Why is +2 a common oxidation state for transition elements?
Because transition metals lose their outer s electrons before losing any of their d electrons.
Because transition metals gain two electrons in chemical reactions.
Because transition metals have a full d-orbital.
Because transition metals form covalent bonds with two other atoms.
What is a coordinate covalent bond?
A bond formed when one atom donates both electrons to a shared pair in a bond.
A bond formed by the equal sharing of electrons between two atoms.
A bond formed by the transfer of electrons from one atom to another.
A bond formed by the overlap of p-orbitals.
What is the difference between a weak-field complex and a strong-field complex?
In a weak-field complex, d-orbitals split with a small energy difference; in a strong-field complex, d-orbitals split with a large energy difference.
In a weak-field complex, electrons are transferred; in a strong-field complex, electrons are shared.
In a weak-field complex, the central atom is a nonmetal; in a strong-field complex, the central atom is a metal.
In a weak-field complex, the ligands are always neutral; in a strong-field complex, the ligands are always charged.
Explain how EDTA is used to treat lead poisoning.
EDTA forms a complex with calcium, and lead displaces the calcium due to a higher formation constant, allowing the lead/EDTA complex to be excreted.
EDTA directly breaks down lead in the bloodstream.
EDTA increases the absorption of calcium, which then binds to lead.
EDTA oxidizes lead to a less toxic form.
