    General Properties:

    The transition metals show great similarities

    within a given period and a group. Their

    Chemistry does not change as number of

    valence electron change.

    They are metals good conductors of heat and

    electricity: Ex: Ag.

    More than one oxidation state.

    Atomic and Physical Properties of

    Transition Elements:

    1. Atomic size decreases from left to right across

    the period , but then remain fairly constant.

    2. Transition elements exhibit a small change in

    electronegativity. The values are intermediate.

    3. First Ionization energies increase little.

    4. Lanthanide contraction- 4f orbitals are filled,increases overall charge on nucleus and not

    the size.

    Chemical Properties

    1. They have multiple oxidation states.

    2. +2 oxi state is most common as ns2 electrons arereadily lost.

    3. Ionic bonding occurs in lower O.S and covalent inhigher O.S.

    4. Electrons in a partially filled d sublevels can absorbvisible wavelengths and hence their compounds are

    colored.5. They are paramagnetic (unpaired d electrons)

    6. IE1 increases down a group.

    Sample Problem 23.2

    SOLUTION:

    Finding the Number of Unpaired Electrons

    PROBLEM: The alloy SmCo5 forms a permanent magent because bothsamarium and cobalt have unpaired electrons. How many

    unpaired electrons are in the Sm atom (Z = 62)?

    PLAN: Write the condensed configuration of Sm and, using Hunds

    rule and the aufbau principle, place electrons into a partial

    orbital diagram.

    Sm is the eighth element after Xe. Two electrons go into the 6s

    sublevel and the remaining six electrons into the 4f (which fills

    before the 5d).

    Sm is [Xe]6s24f6

    6s 4f 5d

    There are 6 unpaired e- in Sm.

    Structures of Complex Ions:

    Coordination Numbers, Geometries, and Ligands

    Coordination Number- the number of ligand atoms that are bonded

    directly to the central metal ion. The coordination number is specific for

    a given metal ion in a particular oxidation state and compound.

    Geometry - the geometry (shape) of a complex ion depends on the

    coordination number and nature of the metal ion.

    Donor atoms per ligand - molecules and/or anions with one or more

    donor atoms that each donate a lone pair of electrons to the metal ion toform a covalent bond.

    Sample Problem 23.5

    SOLUTION:

    Ranking Crystal Field Splitting Energies for

    Complex Ions of a Given Metal

    PROBLEM: Rank the ions [Ti(H2

    O)6

    ]3+, [Ti(NH3

    )6

    ]3+,and [Ti(CN)6

    ]3- in terms of

    the relative value of and of the energy of visible light absorbed.

    PLAN: The oxidation state of Ti is 3+ in all of the complexes so we are

    looking at the crystal field strength of the ligands. The stronger the

    ligand the greater the splitting and the higher the energy of the light

    absorbed.

    The field strength according to is CN- > NH3 > H2O. So the

    relative values of and energy of light absorbed will be

    [Ti(CN)6]3- > [Ti(NH3)6]

    3+ > [Ti(H2O)6]3+

    Sample Problem 23.6

    PLAN:

    SOLUTION:

    Identifying Complex Ions as High Spin or Low Spin

    PROBLEM: Iron (II) forms an essential complex in hemoglobin. For each of the

    two octahedral complex ions [Fe(H2O)6]2+ and [Fe(CN)6]4-, draw anorbital splitting diagram, predict the number of unpaired electrons,

    and identify the ion as low or high spin.

    The electron configuration of Fe2+ gives us information that the

    iron has 6d electrons. The two ligands have field strengths shown

    in .Draw the orbital box diagrams, splitting the d orbitals into eg and

    t2g. Add the electrons noting that a weak-field ligand gives the

    maximum number of unpaired electrons and a high-spin complex

    and vice-versa.
