Answer to Question #21578 in Inorganic Chemistry for Rayne Smith

Question

1.k2[Fe(Co)8]+CH2I2=?+KI
2.Mo2(ch3coo)4+hcl=?+ch3cooh+H(PLUS)
3.Mo(Co)6+CH3COOH=?+CO2+H2
4.CO+H2+CO=?

Answer 1

1. K₂[Fe(CO)₈] + CH₂I₂ = CH₂[Fe(CO)₈] + 2KI

2. Mo₂(CH₃COO)₄ + 8HCl = Mo₂Cl₈^4- + 4CH₃COOH + 4H⁺ (temperature is 0 C)

3. Mo(CO)₆ + 2CH₃COOH = Mo(CH₃COO)₂ + 6CO + H₂

4. CO + 2H₂ = CH₃OH
