Case study 5 continued

Group 2 metals.
Sections 12.4, 12.8.
Table 12.1
Note: Group 2 table of some properties (Home page and Moodle)
End of chapter problems 12.22, 12.24.
Group 12 metals: Sect. 22.13 (zinc) 23.13 (cadmium and mercury)
- Coordination types and characteristic coordination compounds
- Common aqueous chemistry and the identification of Zn, Cd and Hg
- Hg(I) is Hg22+; from where do we know?
- Zink ions in metallo-proteins, Sect 29.5

Iron: sect.21.9, "Iron in two oxidation states" and Lecture notes: Iron

Group 10: Nickel, Palladium and Platinum
Sect. 21.11 and 22.11 Lecture notes: Ni, Pd, Pt

Case study 3, cyanide as the ligand

In the lab we continue and finalise the Ni- and Fe-assignments

Next topic:
The d-block metals: Study material: Chapter 21 (not sect 21.1, 21.2, - don't focus on solid state structures, but merely on metal ion salts and coordination compounds with simpler ligands, since we meet a lot of other chemisty in the Case-studies) and Chapter 22 (only sect 22.3 and 22.11 as an example of a group, the Nickel-group.
Notes M2plus; M3plus; d-block-fluoride; d-block-chloride; Spin pairing energy table

Some short introductions will be given to all of these (first row d-block) metals and much time will be spent on case studies.
