this is what I think ; NH3 has 2 unpaired electrons and they can bond with the d orbitals of tranisitional metals. However, NH4+ doesn't have an unpaired electron and can only substitute its H. Am I on the right track?

Can anybody please tell me why NH3 readily forms complex ions with transitional elements but NH4+ doesn't?

Thanks it is helpful.

I know the molecules in the reaction need 135kJ to start the reaction. But when determining heat of reaction, the number is not even close to 135 kJ.

Can somebody help me with this please? CO + NO2 ----> CO2 + NO the activation energy for the forward reaction is 135 kJ/mol of CO reacted. a) determine the heat of reaction b) fron the data given , and the Delta Hr for the reaction , determine the activation energy for the reverse...
