Postby claireselleck_3E » Sun Nov 28, 2021 5:50 pm

I'm struggling to name this coordination compound and have tried many attempts. Can someone explain to me where I went wrong?

There's a space between hexaamine and cobalt!
Your answer should be:
hexaammine cobalt (III) chloride

Hmmm everything looks correct. Maybe try spacing out the ligand name and the transition metal name?

Hi! I think that Achieve is somewhat sensitive to spacing and stuff. Maybe try deleting the space between the (III) and the first part. That is how I wrote my answer to get it to be correct.

I tried placing a space, but it didn't work still... really odd. Thank you for your help though!!

Hi! Maybe try placing a space between hexa ammine as well. That worked for me because this looks correct.

I tried messing with the spacing for this one, and achieve didn't accept any of my answers. I'm not sure what the problem is, but I appreciate your help! Thank you!!

Update: for anyone that keeps getting the question incorrect... it worked for me to use type capital I instead of using the roman numerals that the question provided.
