Re: order of ligands when going from name to formula
Yeah they go in alphabetical order. Make sure it's by the first letter in the ligand name and not the greek prefix.

-dentate of Ligands
I'm confused on how to determine the -dentate of a ligand. Is it determined by how many sites at which the ligand bonds with the central atom? Or something else?

Re: Ka and Kb on Final
I don't think we'll have to solve equilibrium constants on the final. On Outline 6 where it lists what we have to know for the final it doesn't say anything about equilibrium.

Re: Velocity +/- Values
Yeah the uncertainty would always be the range between the two values. But I think they would always gives us even ranges like -1/+1, -3/+3, or -12/+12, and not uneven ranges like -12/+2, -3/+4, or -9/+4.

Re: I'm uncertain about the Uncertainty Principle
We can't know the exact position and velocity of a particle at the same time because of the techniques we use to find the position and velocity. For example, the technique we use to find the position may change the velocity, or vice versa. If we know one, we can't be sure of the other; we can only e...
