Elements
d Block Elements :- The atoms of the elements in which the last electron enters the d orbital of penultimate ( last but one ) energy level are known as d block elements. This indicates that in these elements, last two shells are incompletely filled.
Lanthanide contraction : - Lanthanide contraction is a term used in chemistry to describe different but closely related concepts associated with smaller than expected atomic radii of the elements in the lanthanide series. Definition :- The decrease in the atomic and ionic radii of the lanthanide elements with increasing atomic number is known as lanthanide contraction. Thus, the first element lanthanum has the largest, while the last element lutetium has the smallest radius among these elements.

Structure of complex compounds based on valence bond theory E ] Structure of Hexaamminecobalt (III) ion, [ CO ( NH3 ) 6 ] 3 + 1.Hexaamminecobalt ( III ) ion, [ CO ( NH3 ) 6 ] 3 + is a cationic complex, oxidation state of Co is +3 and CN = 6 Electronic configuration : 27Co [ Ar ] 3 d7 4 s2 Electronic configuration : Co 3 + [ Ar ] 3 d6 4s0 4p0
NH3 is a strong ligand, due to spin pairing effect, all the four unpaired electrons in 3d orbital are paired giving two vacant 3d orbitals.
Structure of complex compounds based on valence bond theory E ] Structure of Hexaamminecobalt (III) ion, [ CO ( NH3 ) 6 ] 3 +
The coordination number is 6, Co 3 + ion gets six vacant orbitals by hybridisation of two 3d vacant orbitals, one 4s and three 4p orbitals forming six d2sp3 hybrid orbitals giving octahedral geometry. It is an inner complex.
6 lone pairs of electrons from 6NH3 ligands are accommodated in the six vacant d2sp3 hybrid orbitals.
The six hybrid orbitals of Co 3 + overlap with filled orbitals of NH3 forming 6 coordinate bonds giving octahedral geometry to the complex.
Structure of complex compounds based on valence bond theory E ] Structure of Hexaamminecobalt (III) ion, [ CO ( NH3 ) 6 ] 3 +
Geometry of complex : Hexaamminecobalt ( III ) ion has a octahedral geometry due to d2sp3 hybridisation. Magnetic property : Hexaamminecobalt ( III ) ion has no unpaired electrons. Hence the complex is diamagnetic. (Magnetic moment, = 0 ) Effect of ligands : Ammonia ligands causes 3d electrons to be shifted to 3d orbitals so that all the ten electrons are paired up in 3d orbitals.

What is hydride shift ? Consider the following reaction : 3 methylbutan 2 ol heated with Hi to form 2 iodo 2 methylbutane ( and not 2 iodo 3 methylbutane ). This can be explained on the basis of hydride shift.
Exceptional Questions
What is hydride shift ?
Exceptional Questions
Secondary carbocation rearranges to a more stable tertiary carbocation by a hydride ion shift. Nucleophile P ion attacks tertiary carbocation to give tertiary alkyl iodide.
These resonance structures (canonical forms) have negative charge at ortho and para positions as shown above. Hence phenol gives electrophilic substitution reactions at ortho or para or at both the positions but never at meta positions. Phenol is therefore ortho and para directing. www . ednexa . com
Exceptional Questions
The ortho and para nitrophenol can be separated by steam distillation. O nitrophenol is steam volatile due to intramolecular hydrogen bonding while p nitrophenol is less volatile due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding which causes the association of molecules.
