Co-ordination isomerism is a form of structural isomerism in which the composition of the complexion varies. In a coordination isomer, the total ratio ligand to metal remains the same, but the ligand attached to specific metal ion change. In B option ratio of metal to the ligand is the same and they can exchange their ligands (

Which of the following statements is true about hybridisation?
Report Question
0%
The hybridised orbitals have different energies for each orbital.
0%
The number of hybrid orbitals is equal to the number of atomic orbitals that are hybridised.
0%
Hybrid orbitals form multiple bonds.
0%
The orbitals with different energies undergo hybridisation.
Explanation
In hybridization, the number of hybrid orbitals is equal to the number of atomic orbitals that are hybridized.
Let's take an example:-
CH_4
Carbon electronic configuration is
2S^2
2P^2
in ground state, in excited state one electron of
s
orbital move into
p
orbital and thus we get
4
unpaired electrons in atomic orbital which will take part in bonding,
The hybridisation of carbon in
CH_4
is
sp^3
, means
4
hybrid orbitals. (one
s
orbital and three
p
orbitals)
So the correct option is [B]

[Mn(H_{2}O)_{6}]^{+3}
Explanation
The value of
\triangle_o
increases with increase in oxidation state of central metal, since maximum charges causes more left and hence orbital contracts lead to more
CFSE(\triangle _o)
cr^{3+}\rightarrow t_{2g}^3eg^{o}\rightarrow CFSE=|-6/5|\triangle _o
Mn^{3+}\rightarrow d^{4}\rightarrow t_2g^3eg^1\rightarrow CFSE=-6/5\triangle_o+3/5\triangle_o=|-3/5|\triangle_o
\therefore \triangle_o=cr^{3+}>Mn^{3+}
According to Werner's theory of coordination compounds:
Report Question
0%
primary valency is ionisable
0%
secondary valency is ionisable
0%
primary and secondary valencies are ionisable
0%
neither primary nor secondary valency is ionisable
Explanation
Primary valency is ionisable according to Werner's theory of coordination compounds.
According to Werner's coordination theory, there are two kinds of valency, primary and secondary. The primary valency of a central metal ion is satisfied with anions.
For example, in
[Cu(NH_3)_4]SO_4
primary valency is 2 and secondary valency is 4.
Secondary valence refers to coordination number. Since copper is coordinated to 4 ammonia ligands, secondary valence is 4. Primary valence is satisfied by anions. Since sulphate ion has
-2
charge, primary valence is 2.

Explanation
According to Werner's coordination theory, there are two kinds of valency, primary and secondary. The primary valency of a central metal ion is satisfied with anions.
For example, in
[Cu(NH_3)_4]SO_4
primary valency is 2 and secondary valency is 4.
Secondary valence refers to coordination number. Since copper is coordinated to 4 ammonia ligands, secondary valence is 4. Primary valence is satisfied by anions. Since sulphate ion has
-2
charge, primary valence is 2.

Explanation
In a chemical reaction, the overall rate of a reaction is determined by the slowest step, known as the rate determining step. The rate equation is simplified by using the approximation of rate determining step. Since, the slowest step in this reaction is when it has highest potential energy. Thus the rate determining step of reaction is
