hh
which rows of transition metals have the same size atomic radius?
2nd and 3rd row
Fe
ferrate
isoelectronic
having the same number of electrons or electronic structure
diamagnetic
all e- are paired, responds poorly or has no response to magnetic field
Ag
argentate
Au
aurate
polydentate ligands are good
chelating agents that help bind up or isolate the metal by making two or more connections to it
optical isomers
chiral
geometric isomers
cis/trans/fac/mer
ligand bond
covalent bond between a transition metal and ligand
Cu
cuprate
shell order electron configurations
lose electrons from highest orbital to fill lower orbitals
ligand
neutral or anion molecules
coordination number
number of connections between metal and ligand
monodentate
one bond from ligand to metal
Pb
plumbate
lanthanide contraction
poor shielding by f electrons
linkage isomers
same ligand is bound to the metal in different ways
paramagnetic
some unpaired e-, responds to a magnetic field. greater unpaired e- the greater the response
Sn
stannate
