Drill: •Determine the Ksp for Mn2S3 when the solubility is 1 x 10-20

Complex Ions

Complex Ion•An ion formed when a positive central element binds with multiple ions

or polar molecules

Complex Ion•The central

element is almost always a positively

charged metal

Describe or define a

Complex Ion

Anion•Negatively charged ion

Cation

•Positively charged ion

Metal Ion Examples Cu+2 Cu+ Au+

Ag+ Zn+2 Ni+2

Pt+2 Co+2 Al+3

Ligands•The negative ions or polar molecules bound by the central element

in a complex ion

Ligand Examples

•Cl- F- H2O

•NH3 CN- Br-

•NO O2 OH-

Polydentate Ligands

• Ligands that can bind to more than

one point

Bidentate Ligands

•Ligands that can bind to two points in a complex ion

Bidentate Examples

H2N-CH2-CH2-NH2

-OOC-COO-

Tridentate Ligands

•Ligands that can bind to three points

in a complex ion

Tridentate Examples

H2-C-COO-

HO-C-COO-

H2-C-COO-

Chelates•Polydentate ligands

that bind to metal ions in solution

Coordination Number

•The number of points in which ligands bind to the central element

in a complex ion

Coordinate Covalent Bond•Covalent bonds in which both electrons involved are donated

by one atom

Drill:•Define:

–Complex ion

–Ligand

–Coordination number

Complex Ions•The bonds formed in a

complex ion are coordinate covalent

bonds

Coordination Complex

•A complex ion and its counter ion

Complex Ions•The bonds formed in a

complex ion are coordinate covalent

bonds

Complex Ion•Because of the type

bonding, they are sometimes called

coordinate complexes
