(a) In each of the following complexes, determine the overall charge, n, which may be positive or negative: [FeJI(bpy)3J", [Crm(ox)3]", |CrniF6J", |Nin(en)3]\ [Mnll(ox)2(OH,)2]”, |Znn(py)4]", [COmCl2(en)2]".
(b) If the bonding in [Mn04] were 100% ionic, what would be the charges on the Mn and O atoms? Is this model realistic? By applying Pauling’s electroneutrality principle, redistribute the charge in [Mn04]– so that Mn has a resultant charge of +1. What are the charges on each O atom? What does this charge distribution tell you about the degrEP of covalent character in the Mn-O bonds?
