what is the chelate effect?
when an increase in number of particles and therefore entropy makes a reaction more likely to occur.

electron pair acceptor
12 of 17
according to levis theory, bases are...
electron pair donors, forming a co-ordinate bond with a lewis acid
13 of 17
bronsted lowry acids...
are all lewis acids.

why are dilute solutions of iron 2+ and iron 3+ hard to tell apart?
they are pale green and pale brown respectivley.
15 of 17
what is the test to distinguish the two iron ions?
add dilute alkali. this precipitates the hydroxides whose colours are more easily distinguishable.

how does aluminium display amphoteric properties?
it acts like a normal metal hydroxide and reacts with acid => it is basic.it also reacts with NaOH to give colourless tetrahydroxoaluminate.
