Crystalline solids have a sharp melting point. At a characteristic temperature they melt abruptly and become liquid. On the other hand, amorphous solids soften, melt and start flowing over a range of temperature and can be moulded and blown into various shapes. Amorphous solids have the same structural features as liquids and are conveniently regarded as extremely viscous liquids. They may become crystalline at some temperature. Some glass objects from ancient civilisations are found to become milky in appearance because of some crystallisation. Like liquids, amorphous solids have a tendency to flow, though very slowly. Therefore, sometimes these are called pseudo solids or super cooled liquids. 3. What is the similarity between amorphous solids and liquids ?

Answer»

Solution :AMORPHOUS solids have the same structural FEATURES as liquids and are therefore REGARDED as EXTREMELY viscous liquids.

Crystal structure of the oxide AB_(2)O_(4) is bassed on the cubic close packed (ccp) array of O^(2-) ions, with A^(2+) ions occupying some tetrahedral voids and B^(3+) ions occupying some octahedral voids. If a crystal of this oxide contains 1 mol AB_(2)O_(4) formula unit, then calculate (1) total number of voids in the crystal (2) total number of tetrahedral voids occupied by A^(2+) ions (3) total number of octahedral voids occupied by B^(3+) ions.

Answer»

Solution :TOTAL NUMBER of `O^(2-)` ions in 1 mol of oxide `(AB_(2)O_(4))` crystal = `4xx6.022xx10^(23)`.
The ccp structure is formed by `O^(2-)` ions.
So, total number of TETRAHEDRAL voids = 2 `xx` no. of packed `O^(2-)` ions = `2xx4xx6.022xx10^(23)=8xx6.022xx10^(23)` and total number of octahedral voids = number of packed `O^(2-)` ions = `4xx6.023xx10^(23)`.
(1) Total number of voids in 1 mol oxide crystal = `(8+4)xx6.022xx10^(23)=7.2264xx10^(24)`.
(2) To maintain STOICHIOMETRY and electrical neutrality, one-eighth of the total tetrahedral voids will be occupied by `A^(2-)` ions. Hence, total number of tetrahedral voids occupied by `A^(2-)` ions = `1/8xx8xx6.022xx10^(23)`
`=6.022xx10^(23)`.
(3) For the same reasons, half of the total octahedral voids will be occupied by `B^(3+)` ions. Hence, total number of octahedral holes occupied by `B^(3+)` ions.
`=1/2xx4xx6.022xx10^(23)=1.2044xx10^(24)`

Crystal field theory with its assumptions of completely electrostatic metal-ligand interactions, does not appear to retionalize the spectrochemical series particularly well. To explain the order of ligands in the series we must admit some covalent contribution to the metal ligand bond, both sigma and pi. Sigma bonds are formed by ligands using their p orbitals (e.g. Cl^(-)) or by hybrid orbitals (e.g. sp^(3)) by (H_(2)O) since all ligands are capable of such sigma interaction, this is not very useful in rationalizing spectrochemical series. The pi bonding ability of ligands partially justifies their position in spectrochemical series. pi-acid ligands. which can accept electron density from filled metal orbital into their empty orbital via pi interation appear towards stronger/higher and of the series e.g. CN^(-).PR_(3) etc. While sigma-donor ligands are typically weak field ligands e.g. Cl^(-),O^(2-) etc. Q. Which of the following is false for CO ligand?

Answer»

it is a PI-acid LIGAND.
CO ACCEPTS electron density from central atom into its pi bonding molecular orbital.
CO forms sigma BOND with central atom using its SP hybrid orbital.
CO is a strong field ligand.

Solution :CO accepts electron density from central atom into its empty pi anti-bonding MO, because its pi bonding MO is already occupied Hence it is pi-acid ligand.

Which of the following d orbitals of the central atom is useful for sigma bond formation with ligands in octahedral field?

Answer»

`d_(xy),d_(x^(2)-y^(2))`
`d_(z^(2)),d_(x^(2)-y^(2))`
`d_(yz),d_(XZ)`
`d_(xy),d_(yz),d_(xz)`

Solution :For sigma covalent bond, that is head on OVERLAP the d orbitals must be those of the `e_(g)` SET, because only these orbitals point at the ligands in octahedral FIELD.

Crystal field theory views the bonding in complexes as arising from electrostatic interaction and considers the effect of the ligand charges on the energies of the metal ion d-orbitals In this theory, a ligand lone pair is modelled as a point negative charge that repels electrons in the d-orbitals of the central metal ion.The theory concentrated on the resulting splitting of the d-orbitals in two groups with different energies and used that splitting to rationalize and correlate the optical spectra,thermodynamic stability, and magnetic properties of complexes.This energy splitting between the two sets of d-orbitals is called the crystal field splitting Delta. In general, the crystal field splitting energy Delta corresponds to wavelenght of light in visible region of the spectrum, and colours of the complexes can therefore be attributed to electronic transition between the lower and higher energy sets of d-orbitals. In general, the colour that we see is complementry to the colour absorbed. Different metal ions have different value of Delta, which explains why their complexes with the same ligand have different colour. Similarly the crystal field splitting also depends on the nature of ligands and as the ligand for the same metal varies from H_2O to NH_3 to ethylenediamine, Delta for complexes increase.Accordingly, the electronic transition shifts to higher energy (shorter wavelength) as the ligand varies from H_2O from NH_3 to en, thus accounting for the variation in colour. Crystal field theory accounts for the magnetic properties of complexes in terms of the relative values of Delta and the spin pairing energy P. Small Delta values favour high spin complexes, and large Delta values favour low spin complexes. The [Ti(NCS)_6]^(3-) ion exhibits a single absorption band at 544 nm.What will be the crystal field splitting energy (in kJ mol^(-1)) of the complex ? (h=6.626xx10^(-34) J.s, C=3.0xx10^5 m//s, N_A=6.02xx10^23 ions/mole.

Answer»

Solution :`Delta=hv=(hc)/lambda=((6.626xx10^(-34)J.s)XX(3.0xx10^(8)m//s))/(544xx10^(-9)m)=3.65xx10^(-19)` J/ion
`=(3.65xx10^(-19)"J/ion")xx(6.02xx10^(23)"ions/mole")=(21.973xx10^(4))/1000"KJ mol"^(-1) =219.73 "kJ mol"^(-1)`

Small Delta values favour high spin complexes, and large Delta values favour low spin complexes. Which of the following statements is incorrect ?

Answer»

The `Ni^(2+)` (aq) cation is coloured because `Ni^(2+)` ion can absorb light, which promotes electrons from the filled d-orbitals to the higher ENERGY HALF filled d-orbitals
The `Zn^(2+)` (aq) cation is COLOURLESS because the d-orbitals are completely filled and no electrons can be promoted, so no light is absorbed
A COMPLEX which has just ONE absorption band at 455 nm, must be red coloured
None

Solution :As it absorbs blue colour light (`lambda`=455 nm), the colour of the complex must be orange.
