f. Hg 2+ + Hg, in aqueous acid<br />

19. Predict the products of each reaction <strong>and</strong> then balance each chemical equation.<br />

a. AgBr + hν<br />

b. W + excess Cl 2 , heated<br />

c. CuO + H 2 , heated<br />

d. Fe 2 O 3 in aqueous acid<br />

e. RhCl 3 + NH 3 , in water<br />

f. Fe 2+ + [MnO 4 ] − , in water<br />

20. What do you predict to be the coordination number of Pt 2+ , Au + , Fe 3+ , <strong>and</strong> Os 2+ ?<br />

21. Of La, Sc, Cr, <strong>and</strong> Hf, which is most likely to form stable compounds in the +4 oxidation state? Why?<br />

22. Give the most common oxidation state for Y, W, Ru, Ag, Hg, Zn, Cr, Nb, <strong>and</strong> Ti.<br />

23. Give the most common oxidation state for Os, Cd, Hf, V, Ac, Ni, Mn, Pt, <strong>and</strong> Fe.<br />

24. Give the highest oxidation state observed for Zr, Fe, Re, Hg, Ni, La, <strong>and</strong> Mo.<br />

25. Give the highest oxidation state observed for Ag, Co, Os, Au, W, <strong>and</strong> Mn.<br />

26. Arrange La, Cs, Y, Pt, Cd, Mo, Fe, Co, <strong>and</strong> Ir in order of increasing first ionization energy.<br />

27. Briefly explain the following trends within the transition metals.<br />

a. Transition-metal fluorides usually have higher oxidation states than their iodides.<br />

b. For a given metal, the lowest-oxidation-state oxide is basic <strong>and</strong> the highest-oxidation-state<br />

oxide is acidic.<br />

c. Halides of the transition metals become more covalent with increasing oxidation state <strong>and</strong><br />

are more prone to hydrolysis.<br />

29. Of the group 5 elements, which<br />

a. has the greatest tendency to form ions in the lower oxidation states?<br />

b. has the greatest tendency to form a polymeric fluoride?<br />

c. does not form an MX 2 species?<br />

d. forms the most basic oxide?<br />

e. has the greatest tendency to form complexes with coordination numbers higher than 6?<br />
