5.How can formation of nitrosyl complexes be formed from carbonyl complexes with the help of nitric oxide? Give three suitable equations to show this.
6.The C – O stretching frequencies in the IR spectra of certain metal carbonyl species are as follows:
7.What information is obtained from the IR spectrum of Fe2(Cp)2(CO)4 given below ?
8.Which metal ion is essential for the process of blood coagulation? Explain the mechanism by which it facilitates clot formation? Give the different ways by which cadmium affects the human body.
9.With the help of a suitable diagram explain the Na+-K+ pump. Show how the sodium potassium pump moves toward an equilibrium state with the relative concentrations.
10.With the help of a suitable diagram, explain the mechanism of oxygen binding in hemoglobin and discuss the structural changes that occur upon formation of oxyhemoglobin.
