can someone tell me if im doing this correctly

O THE TRANSITION METALS Determining the oxidation state of the metal in a coordi... Determine the oxidation state of the transition metal in each of these coordination compounds. compound oxidation state of the transition metal [MOCI, (CO)2]Br, K[Mn Bry(NH,)] K[CCI,(H,0)] x ?

Answer 1

For determining the oxidation state of transition metal, Let it be a, then - for [Mocla (eo)2] Brz Hence, X+2(-1) + (2x0) + 36-1) =0 or, x-2-3=0 g Hena, oxidation? or, x=+5 s state of Mous ( +5 ) For lates K[Mn Bry (NH3 ++x+41-1) + (2xo) =0 Oxidation State ov, x +1-4 =O of Mn i's +3 ov, x =+3 for k[erd3CH20] +} {x + 3(-) + (x ) = 0 or) X+1-3 =0 ori x =+2 Oxidation state of er is t2
