When gallium is dissolved in a solution of KOH in liquid NH 3 , a salt K[I]
Question:
When gallium is dissolved in a solution of KOH in liquid NH3, a salt K[I] is formed which is an amido complex of Ga(III). Heating one equivalent of K[I] at 570K under vacuum liberates two equivalents of NH3, and produces a Ga(III) imido complex K[II]. Partial neutralization of K[I] with NH4Cl yields Ga(NH2)3. Suggest identities for the salts K[I] and K[II], and write equations for the thermal decomposition and partial neutralization reactions of K[I].
