Answer 1

What is the difference of this three complexes [Ni(H2O)6][BF4]2, [Ni(en)3][BF4]2 and [Ni(C16H32N4)][BF4]2 in their UV spectrum?

Solution:

This three complexes [Ni(H2O)6][BF4]2, [Ni(en)3][BF4]2 and [Ni(C16H32N4)][BF4]2 in their UV spectrum is the difference because UV spectrum everything complexes depends from the molar attenuation coefficient. The molar attenuation coefficient is a measurement of how strongly a chemical species attenuates light at a given wavelength. It is an intrinsic property of the species.
