We have a pink crystals of an ionic compound of an f- block element (M). The crystals house the octahydrate [ M(H2O)8]3+ and an anion which is not chloride and does not luminesce under UV. (A) First, draw and label a plausible solid-state geometry for the hydrated cation. (B)Provide ALL potential identities for the f- block element, M, based on the information supplied above, defending your choices and discussing the applicable chemical concepts. (C)What are the potential solid state MCI3 geometries and coordination numbers for ALL of the components proposed in section (B)? Explain briefly why, focusing on the key chemical principles. (D) In ion - exchange chromatography, which of the trivalent f-block ions indicated in component (B) would you anticipate to elute first? Explain your response, emphasising the important chemical concepts.
