Find the elemental composition for bis diphenylphosphino ferrocene in terms of the atom and mass percents: atom percent = N_i/N_atoms × 100% mass percent = (N_im_i)/m × 100% Plan: • Write the chemical formula and gather atomic masses from the periodic table. • Determine values for N_i, m_i, N_atoms and m using these items. • Finally, compute the percents and check the results. Write the chemical formula: C_34H_28FeP_2 Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element and find the total number of atoms, N_atoms, per molecule: | number of atoms C (carbon) | 34 P (phosphorus) | 2 Fe (iron) | 1 H (hydrogen) | 28 N_atoms = 34 + 2 + 1 + 28 = 65 Divide each N_i by N_atoms to calculate atom fractions. Then use the property that atom fractions must sum to one to check the work: | number of atoms | atom fraction C (carbon) | 34 | 34/65 P (phosphorus) | 2 | 2/65 Fe (iron) | 1 | 1/65 H (hydrogen) | 28 | 28/65 Check: 34/65 + 2/65 + 1/65 + 28/65 = 1 Compute atom percents using the atom fractions: | number of atoms | atom percent C (carbon) | 34 | 34/65 × 100% = 52.3% P (phosphorus) | 2 | 2/65 × 100% = 3.08% Fe (iron) | 1 | 1/65 × 100% = 1.54% H (hydrogen) | 28 | 28/65 × 100% = 43.1% Look up the atomic mass, m_i, in unified atomic mass units, u, for each element in the periodic table: | number of atoms | atom percent | atomic mass/u C (carbon) | 34 | 52.3% | 12.011 P (phosphorus) | 2 | 3.08% | 30.973761998 Fe (iron) | 1 | 1.54% | 55.845 H (hydrogen) | 28 | 43.1% | 1.008 Multiply N_i by m_i to compute the mass for each element. Then sum those values to compute the molecular mass, m: | number of atoms | atom percent | atomic mass/u | mass/u C (carbon) | 34 | 52.3% | 12.011 | 34 × 12.011 = 408.374 P (phosphorus) | 2 | 3.08% | 30.973761998 | 2 × 30.973761998 = 61.947523996 Fe (iron) | 1 | 1.54% | 55.845 | 1 × 55.845 = 55.845 H (hydrogen) | 28 | 43.1% | 1.008 | 28 × 1.008 = 28.224 m = 408.374 u + 61.947523996 u + 55.845 u + 28.224 u = 554.390523996 u Divide the mass for each element by m to calculate mass fractions. Then use the property that mass fractions must sum to one to check the work: | number of atoms | atom percent | mass fraction C (carbon) | 34 | 52.3% | 408.374/554.390523996 P (phosphorus) | 2 | 3.08% | 61.947523996/554.390523996 Fe (iron) | 1 | 1.54% | 55.845/554.390523996 H (hydrogen) | 28 | 43.1% | 28.224/554.390523996 Check: 408.374/554.390523996 + 61.947523996/554.390523996 + 55.845/554.390523996 + 28.224/554.390523996 = 1 Compute mass percents using the mass fractions: Answer: | | | number of atoms | atom percent | mass percent C (carbon) | 34 | 52.3% | 408.374/554.390523996 × 100% = 73.66% P (phosphorus) | 2 | 3.08% | 61.947523996/554.390523996 × 100% = 11.17% Fe (iron) | 1 | 1.54% | 55.845/554.390523996 × 100% = 10.07% H (hydrogen) | 28 | 43.1% | 28.224/554.390523996 × 100% = 5.091%

The first step in finding the oxidation states (or oxidation numbers) in bis diphenylphosphino ferrocene is to draw the structure diagram. Next set every oxidation number equal to the atom's formal charge: In bis diphenylphosphino ferrocene hydrogen is not bonded to a metal with lower electronegativity, so it will have an oxidation state of +1. Any element bonded to hydrogen gains the bonding electrons, decreasing their oxidation state by 1 for every bond: With hydrogen out of the way, look at the remaining bonds. There are 6 carbon-phosphorus bonds, and 34 carbon-carbon bonds. For each of these bonds, assign the bonding electrons to the most electronegative element. First examine the carbon-phosphorus bonds: element | electronegativity (Pauling scale) | C | 2.55 | P | 2.19 | | | Since carbon is more electronegative than phosphorus, the electrons in these bonds will go to carbon. Decrease the oxidation number for carbon in every highlighted bond (by 1 for single bonds, 2 for double bonds, and 3 for triple bonds), and increase the oxidation number for phosphorus accordingly: Next look at the carbon-carbon bonds: element | electronegativity (Pauling scale) | C | 2.55 | C | 2.55 | | | Since these elements are the same the bonding electrons are shared equally, and there is no change to the oxidation states: Now summarize the results: Answer: | | oxidation state | element | count -2 | C (carbon) | 2 -1 | C (carbon) | 32 +1 | H (hydrogen) | 28 +2 | Fe (iron) | 1 +3 | P (phosphorus) | 2
