Eye Contact Ensure complete irrigation of the eye by keeping eyelids apart and away from eye and moving the eyelids by occasionally lifting the upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention without delay; if pain persists or recurs seek medical attention. Removal of contact lenses after an eye injury should only be undertaken by skilled personnel. If skin contact occurs: Immediately remove all contaminated clothing, including footwear. Skin Contact Flush skin and hair with running water (and soap if available). Seek medical attention in event of irritation. If fumes or combustion products are inhaled remove from contaminated area. Lay patient down. Keep warm and rested. Prostheses such as false teeth, which may block airway, should be removed, where possible, prior to initiating first aid procedures. Inhalation Apply artificial respiration if not breathing, preferably with a demand valve resuscitator, bag-valve mask device, or pocket mask as trained. Perform CPR if necessary. Transport to hospital, or doctor, without delay. If swallowed do NOT induce vomiting. If vomiting occurs, lean patient forward or place on left side (head-down position, if possible) to maintain open airway and prevent aspiration. Observe the patient carefully. Ingestion Never give liquid to a person showing signs of being sleepy or with reduced awareness; i.e. becoming unconscious. Give water to rinse out mouth, then provide liquid slowly and as much as casualty can comfortably drink. Seek medical advice. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed See Section 11 Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed For potassium intoxications: Hyperkalaemia, in patients with abnormal renal function, results from reduced renal excretion following intoxication. The presence of electrocardiographic evidence of hyperkalemia or serum potassium levels exceeding 7.5 mE/L indicates a medical emergency requiring an intravenous line and constant cardiac monitoring. The intravenous ingestion of 5-10 ml of 10% calcium gluconate, in adults, over a 2 minute period antagonises the cardiac and neuromuscular effects. The duration of action is approximately 1 hour.

Special hazards arising from the substrate or mixture Fire Incompatibility Avoid contamination with oxidising agents i.e. nitrates, oxidising acids, chlorine bleaches, pool chlorine etc. as ignition may result Special protective equipment and precautions for fire-fighters Alert Fire Brigade and tell them location and nature of hazard. Wear breathing apparatus plus protective gloves. Prevent, by any means available, spillage from entering drains or water courses. Use water delivered as a fine spray to control fire and cool adjacent area. Fire Fighting DO NOT approach containers suspected to be hot. Cool fire exposed containers with water spray from a protected location. If safe to do so, remove containers from path of fire. Equipment should be thoroughly decontaminated after use. Combustible solid which burns but propagates flame with difficulty; it is estimated that most organic dusts are combustible (circa 70%) - according to the circumstances under which the combustion process occurs, such materials may cause fires and / or dust explosions. Organic powders when finely divided over a range of concentrations regardless of particulate size or shape and suspended in air or some other oxidizing medium may form explosive dust-air mixtures and result in a fire or dust explosion (including secondary explosions). Avoid generating dust, particularly clouds of dust in a confined or unventilated space as dusts may form an explosive mixture with air, and any source of ignition, i.e. flame or spark, will cause fire or explosion. Dust clouds generated by the fine grinding of the solid are a particular hazard; accumulations of fine dust (420 micron or less) may burn rapidly and fiercely if ignited - particles exceeding this limit will generally not form flammable dust clouds; once initiated, however, larger particles up to 1400 microns diameter will contribute to the propagation of an explosion. In the same way as gases and vapours, dusts in the form of a cloud are only ignitable over a range of concentrations; in principle, the concepts of lower explosive limit (LEL) and upper explosive limit (UEL) are applicable to dust clouds but only the LEL is of practical use; - this is because of the inherent difficulty of achieving homogeneous dust clouds at high temperatures (for dusts the LEL is often called the "Minimum Explosible Concentration", MEC). When processed with flammable liquids/vapors/mists,ignitable (hybrid) mixtures may be formed with combustible dusts. Ignitable mixtures will increase Fire/Explosion Hazard the rate of explosion pressure rise and the Minimum Ignition Energy (the minimum amount of energy required to ignite dust clouds - MIE) will be lower than the pure dust in air mixture. The Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) of the vapour/dust mixture will be lower than the individual LELs for the vapors/mists or dusts. A dust explosion may release of large quantities of gaseous products; this in turn creates a subsequent pressure rise of explosive force capable of damaging plant and buildings and injuring people. Usually the initial or primary explosion takes place in

Materials based on the pillared cyano-bridged architecture, [Ni’(L)Ni(CN)4]n (L = pillar organic ligands), also known as PICNICs, have been shown to be especially diverse where pore size and pore functionality can be varied by the choice of pillar organic ligand. In addition, a number of PICNICs form soft porous structures that show reversible structure transitions during the adsorption and desorption of guests. The structural flexibility in these materials can be affected by relatively minor differences in ligand design, and the physical driving force for variations in host-guest behavior in these materials is still not known. One key to understanding this diversity is a detailed investigation of the crystal structures of both rigid and flexible PICNIC derivatives. This article gives a brief review of flexible MOFs. It also reports the crystal structures of five PICNICS from our laboratories including three 3-D porous frameworks (Ni-Bpene, NI-BpyMe, Ni-BpyNH2), one 2-D layer (Ni-Bpy), and one 1-D chain (Ni-Naph) compound.

Additionally, it was found that K. pneumoniae strain is not only able to degrade potassium cyanide, but also to degrade potassium hexacyano- ferrate(II) trihydrate and sodium ferrocyanide decahydrate with the effi ciencies of 85 and 87.5 %, respectively. Furthermore, this strain degraded potassium cyanide in the presence of diff erent ions such as magnesium, nickel, cobalt, iron, chromium, arsenic and zinc, in variable concentrations (0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 mM) and as a result the amount of the bacteria in the biodegradation media decreased with the increase of ion concentration. Lastly, it was also observed that sterile crude extract of K. pneumoniae strain degraded potassium cya- nide on the fi ft h day of incubation. Based on these results, it is concluded that both culture and sterile crude extract of K. pnemoniae will be used in cyanide removal from diff erent wastes.

    Problems 14, 15, 16, 19, 22, 24, and 25 in DeKock and Gray, pages 411–414. 14. “All octahedral complexes of V3+ have the same number of unpaired electrons, no matter what the nature of the ligand. Why is this so?” V3+ has a d2 electron configuration; in an octahedral ligand environment, regardless of the type of ligand interactions, the lowest energy orbitals are the triply degenerate 2 t2g orbitals. A d octahedral metal complex will always have 2 unpaired electrons. For the same reason, octahedral d1, d3, d8, d9, and d10 also only have one possible electronic configuration. 15. “How does the molecular-orbital theory account for the order of ligands in the spectrochemical series.” The spectrochemical series (courtesy of Wikipedia): I− < Br− < S2− < SCN− < Cl− < − − − − 2− − NO3 < N3 < F < OH < C2O4 ≈ H2O < NCS < CH3CN < pyridine < NH3 < − − ethylenediamine < 2,2'-bipyridine < 1,10-phenanthroline < NO2 < PPh3 < CN ≈ CO. This series can be explained by the type of π interactions on the ligands. The ligands with the smallest octahedral splitting will be π-donors (i.e. I-, Br-, etc) who will bond with the t2g orbitals on the metal, raising it in energy, thus decreasing the - t2g eg splitting. Similarly, π-acceptors (i.e. CN , CO, etc) will have the largest octahedral splitting energy as the t2g orbitals on the metal now become bonding and decrease in energy. The ligands in the middle of the series have little π-interaction with the metal and therefore the t2g remain nonbonding. 3- 4- 16. “Explain why Co(CN)6 is extremely stable but Co(CN)6 is not.” 3- 6 6 4- 7 6 1 Co(CN)6 is low spin d , therefore t2g , while Co(CN)6 is low spin d , t2g eg* .

    pp-03-25-new dots.qxd 10/23/02 2:41 PM Page 611 NICKEL CARBONATE 611 NICKEL CARBONATE [3333-67-3] Formula: NiCO3; MW 118.72 Two basic carbonates are known. They are 2NiCO3•3Ni(OH)2•4H2O [29863- 10-3], and NiCO3•2Ni(OH)2 [12607-70-4], MW 304.17. The second form occurs in nature as a tetrahydrate, mineral, zaratite. Commercial nickel car- bonate is usually the basic salt, 2NiCO3•3Ni(OH)2•4H2O. Uses Nickel carbonate is used to prepare nickel catalysts and several specialty compounds of nickel. It also is used as a neutralizing agent in nickel plating solutions. Other applications are in coloring glass and in the manufacture of ceramic pigments. Physical Properties NiCO3: Light green rhombohedral crystals; decomposes on heating; practi- cally insoluble in water, 93 mg/L at 25°C; dissolves in acids. 2NiCO3•3Ni(OH)2•4H2O: Light green crystals or brown powder; decom- poses on heating; insoluble in water; decomposes in hot water; soluble in acids and in ammonium salts solutions. Zaratite: Emerald greed cubic crystals; density 2.6 g/cm3; insoluble in water; soluble in ammonia and dilute acids. Thermochemical Properties ∆Ηƒ° (NiCO3) –140.6 kcal/mol Preparation Anhydrous nickel carbonate is produced as a precipitate when calcium car- bonate is heated with a solution of nickel chloride in a sealed tube at 150°C. Alternatively, treating nickel powder with ammonia and carbon dioxide fol- lowed by boiling off ammonia yields pure carbonate. When sodium carbonate is added to a solution of Ni(II) salts, basic nickel carbonate precipitates out in impure form.
