Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions
What is the significance of the 'secondary valence' in Werner's theory?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Understand that 'secondary valence' is a term used in coordination chemistry.
Step 2: Recognize that it relates to how ligands (molecules or ions that bond to a central metal atom) are arranged around the metal.
Step 3: Realize that this arrangement affects the properties of the complex, such as its shape and reactivity.
Step 4: Note that the secondary valence is important for predicting how the complex will behave in different chemical reactions.
