FINAL PRACTICE - Lyndon's Churro Review Session [ENDORSED]
The title is called "Churro" so that you can search "Churro" and easily find this post!
This is your favorite UA, Lyndon Bui, and I have created many practice problems for your final. The questions are modeled after previous test and exam questions, but it may not have everything you need to know. This covers only material after the midterm. I already covered pre-midterm material in a midterm review session.
Please complete these problems before my review session. My review session this quarter (Fall18) will be Friday, Dec 7, 4-6:50pm, in Haines 39.
I will go over each problem in detail during my review session. The answers, but not full solutions or work, will be posted here at this post after the review session. Any errors in the test will be posted below as well. If you have questions, please reply to this post and I will answer them if another student does not.
Printed copies will NOT be provided at the review session.
Link to Download Problems: Problems no longer available. Quarter has ended. See Course website and syllabus for most up-to-date material.
***This is not indicative of the structure, length, or format of the actual final. Treat these as extra practice problems. ***
Errors: #34 should say "1.0L Flask instead of 1L Flask"

[Ni (NH3)5 NO2]^+2
Because the Nickel has a 3+ charge and the NO2 has a 1- charge, it brings it to a net charge of 2+.
NH3 has no charge.
I hope this helps.
Please correct me if I made a mistake. Thanks

That's what I was thinking as well. So then the compound name would have to have "ion" at the end, right?

But for now.. think about how you would determine the oxidation state of a transition metal for a simpler complex then apply the same concepts to this larger molecule.

I'm not completely sure if this is right but, for #34, I did the neutralization rxn between HCl and CaO. One of them is limiting, so if you use all of it up, you form water. The excess that's left over you can use to find the pH.

As a hint, remember that you only look at Hydronium ions and hydroxide ions when determining pH or pOH. Acids generate hydronium ions while bases generate hydroxide ions. The two neutralize each other.

This angle will be slightly less than 120 degrees. This is because it is sp2 hybridized, and has a VSEPR formula of AX2E the shape is bent. The lone pair repels the oxygens more than a bonding pair, making the angle less than 120 degrees.

Myoglobin has one heme group, which is what that Fe N structure is. Each heme group can hold one oxygen, therefore myoglobin holds 1 oxygen. Hemoglobin has 4 heme groups.

Iron actually likes to have 6 bonds... coordination number 6. This Fe in the structure is bound to 4 nitrogens, but will also bind to a histine group and a structure that binds to oxygen, creating 6 bonds. 6 bonds creates an octahedral structure.

33c
For 33c, since we have a weak base, we will have less OH since it doesn’t completely dissociate. However, since less OH means more H3O, this means less pOH should mean more pH. Why did Lyndon say lower pH instead?

More H30 means more proton concentration, meaning a lower (more acidic) pH value.

hemoglobin and cisplatin are not ligands, so they aren't any kind of "dentate." We only describe ligands as being bidentate, tridentate, etc.

H2Se has stronger London dispersion forces, while H2S has stronger dipole-dipole forces. However, because we are given that H2Se has a higher boiling point, all we know that is that the london dispersion forces were stronger and thus dominated.

For part B:
We would expect ozone to have two bond lengths are the same. This is because it is a resonance structure. In resonance structures, the bond lengths are the same--the average of its bond lengths.
For part C:
O2 would have the strongest bond because it has a double bond and thus is shorter.

On question 21, can someone explain why Fe has an oxidation state of +2? I get that this is because of the nitrogens, but how do the nitrogens come to have a charge of -2? I was trying to calculate the formal charge but kept getting a positive charge on the nitrogens, not a negative charge.

I was trying to calculate the formal charge but kept getting a positive charge on the nitrogens, not a negative charge.
This is because we are told that the overall charge of the molecule is neutral. So if the nitrogens all have a charge of -2, then Fe has to have a charge of +2 in order for the overall charge to be 0. In order to find the charge of the nitrogen ligand, you have to look at each nitrogen when it is not bound to Fe (so you replace each n-Fe bond with a lone pair) and also fill in the rest of the lone pair necessary for each nitrogen to have a full octet (again, while unbound). Once you do this, you can find the formal charge of each nitrogen. There are 4 nitrogens, 2 of them had two pairs of lone pair electrons and 2 single bonds, so those had a formal charge of -1 (5-6 = -1) each, and the other two nitrogens had one pair of lone electrons and one single bond and one double bond, so those had a formal charge of 0 (5-5 = 0). The whole ring around Fe is 1 single ligand because it's all connected, so if we add all of the nitrogen charges together, the charge of the ligand is -2.
This is really hard to explain without the picture but I hope it helped somehow!

Re: FINAL PRACTICE - Lyndon's Churro Review Session
CaminaB_1D wrote:can someone explain 23 and why porphyrin ligand is tetradentrate
Porphyrin is tetradentate because there are four binding sites of the ligand (the four N's in the diagram) to the Fe. The prefix to the dentate has to do with how many binding sites there are for a single ligand.

How do we determine the hybridization on the lone pair? For example, if O is bonded to two atoms and has two lone pairs, wouldn't it just be sp3 or is there another specific notation for the lone pair I am missing?

If K2 has a +2 charge, then [Ni(CN)4] must have a -2 charge since the overall compound is neutral. It's called "nickelate" because the compound in the brackets has the -2 charge.

In the same way that you do when determining shape, count the regions of electron density. If O has two lone pairs and two bonding pairs, the total number of regions of electron density is 4, so the hybridization is sp3. There are 4 sp3 orbitals formed: two of them hold one lone pair each, and the remaining two are used in the bonding pairs.

ariellasarkissian_3H wrote:Can someone explain the bond angles in number 18?
For number 18, you have to look at the structure with all bonds, atoms, and lone pairs to make it easy to see what is going on. Once you have a structure that includes every thing see what shapes you have for each atom and from the shape determine what the different bond angles would be. For example, the less than 109.5 degrees comes from the bent shape of the Oxygen with the two lone pairs and two Carbon atoms attached to it. The 109.5 degrees angle comes from the tetrahedral shape of the CH3 at the far right of the molecule. The 120 degrees can be seen in any of the trigonal planar shapes, and lastly the 180 degrees is from the CN bond that is composed of a triple bond and is therefore linear.
Hope this helps!

I would say it has to be ONO, nitrito, because if you write NO2 that can be mistaken with nitro. Which seem similar but are not because the central atom for each differentiates.

For this question it's crucial to realize that NaOH is a strong base and therefore we know that it completely dissociates. Once we have identified this, we know that 0.55M NaOH will produce 0.55 OH- because it completely dissociates. From here all that is left is plug in the concentration of the OH- into the pOH formula, , and then once you get the pOH which in this problem is = 0.2596 you use this to get pH by using, and get a pH of 13.740.
For this problem also remember that the significant figure rules are different.

I think we should specify ONO-, but doesn't both NO2- and ONO- had the same lewis structure (with N as central), but the difference was what atom was bound to the metal, with N binding for NO2- and O binding for ONO-?

Yes, you are right! I messed up, I did NOT mean to say that the Lewis structure was different sorry for the confusion! The difference is the atom to which the metal will bind to.

for #24, why can't we find the oxidation state of Fe by finding the nitrogen' formal charges while attached?
Thanks in advance!

Can someone explain 41c? I'm confused as to why the nitrogen with the lone pair can accept the proton but not the oxygen.

I think I understand the basis of how to do number 34, but I keep getting a pH of 2.10. Did anyone else make the error same/know what my error is?

Re: FINAL PRACTICE - Lyndon's Churro Review Session
What is a porphyrin ligand and will we be asked about ligands like this on the test?

I get that this is because of the nitrogens, but how do the nitrogens come to have a charge of -2? I was trying to calculate the formal charge but kept getting a positive charge on the nitrogens, not a negative charge.
This is because we are told that the overall charge of the molecule is neutral. So if the nitrogens all have a charge of -2, then Fe has to have a charge of +2 in order for the overall charge to be 0. In order to find the charge of the nitrogen ligand, you have to look at each nitrogen when it is not bound to Fe (so you replace each n-Fe bond with a lone pair) and also fill in the rest of the lone pair necessary for each nitrogen to have a full octet (again, while unbound). Once you do this, you can find the formal charge of each nitrogen. There are 4 nitrogens, 2 of them had two pairs of lone pair electrons and 2 single bonds, so those had a formal charge of -1 (5-6 = -1) each, and the other two nitrogens had one pair of lone electrons and one single bond and one double bond, so those had a formal charge of 0 (5-5 = 0). The whole ring around Fe is 1 single ligand because it's all connected, so if we add all of the nitrogen charges together, the charge of the ligand is -2.
This is really hard to explain without the picture but I hope it helped somehow!
Thank's for your explanation, I was stuck on this for a while before
