    When do cyanide ligands form a tetrahedral geometry with Co2+ ?

    Is there something about the repulsion of the lone pair on thenitrogen that prevents the cyanides being all on the same plane?

    d-orbital self split or proton split d-orbitals?

    why don't d-orbitals split themselves because of themselves without the presence of ligands? Electrons are indistinguishable. Why wouldn't it be more correct that protons from a ligand split the d-orbitals rather than the lone-pairs cause d-orbital splitting energy?

    What's the correct way to count chelate rings in [Co(EDTA)]-?

    Since I can't find a definition I just drew cycles. When to start and end?

    Chromium 2+ ion uses only unfilled d-orbitals to form 6 dative bonds?

    I find the one (4s) + 3(4p) + 2(d) incorrect according to my knowledge.

    Request resources to understand Picard–Lindelöf for ODEs

    I always confuse picard-lindelof forints converse. I want additional reading but don't know how to find it. Moderator Note: Moved from Academic Advising since it is too specific, and too narrow for Science Textbooks.

    Valence shell of transition metals definition is what?

    Case one: ns is half-filled and (n-1)d is less than full. Is valence 1+number of electrons in (n-1)d or number of electrons in (n-1)d or 1? Case two: ns is fully filled and (n-1)d is less than full Is valence 2 or 2+ number of electrons in (n-1)d or number of electrons in (n-1)d? Case three...

    Online Resources request for chemistry quizzes for practice

    TL;DR Summary: Online Resources request for chemistry quizzes for practice Are there any other website besides the ones shown in the images that give quizzes for practicing chemistry? AFAIK, most resources online aren't as minimalistic. Requesting others like these.

    Transition Metal Periodic Trend -- Stackexchange's answer confuses me

    There was a post on stackexchange.com explaining the trend in melting/boiling points of first series transition elements. https://chemistry.stackexchange.com/questions/4766/melting-and-boiling-points-of-transition-elements The specific question was...
