Question:

(a) SbCl3 may be used as a non-aqueous solvent above its melting point. Suggest a possible self-ionization process for this solvent.

(b) Explain why the reaction of NOCl with AgNO3 in liquid N2O4 can be classed as a neutralization process. Write an equation for the reaction and compare it with that of HCl with Ca(OH)2 in aqueous solution.

(c) In water, Cr3+ precipitates as Cr(OH)3 at pH 7, forms [Cr(OH2)6]3+ in strongly acidic solution (e.g. HClO4), and [Cr(OH)4] in basic solution. Suggest what Cr(III) species are present in liquid NH3 as the pH is varied.
