Question 4 Answer all parts. (a) Predict whether the Cr(NH3).]Cl2 complex will be high or low spin configuration knowing that the observed magnetic moment is Mobs= 3.3 B.M. Clearly explain your answer. [5 marks) (b) How will a Ffree-ion term split in a high-spin octahedral or tetrahedral field? Clearly explain your answer. (5 marks) (c) The action of air and water on aqueous (Co(H20).]Cl; unusually results in a reduction of the cobalt complex to produce ozone and hydrochloric acid. (ii) Write the redox half-equations for this reaction and use them to write a full, balanced equation. [6 marks) What is the driving force for this reaction?
