Chapter 2: Q129CP (page 86)
Transition metals, located in the centre of the periodic table, have many essential uses as elements and form many important compounds as well. Calculate the molecular mass of the following transition metal compounds:
(a) [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 (b) [Pt(NH3)4BrCl]Cl₂ (c) K4[V(CN)6] (d) [Ce(NH3)6][FeCl4]3
Short Answer
The molecular mass for the transition metal compounds is as follows:
- 267.46 amu
- 449.45 amu
- 363.40 amu
- 835.25 amu
