Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the oxidation state and covalency of aluminum (Al) in the complex ion \([AlCl(H_2O)_5]^{2+}\) are the same, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define Oxidation State and Covalency - **Oxidation State**: This is the charge of an atom in a compound, representing the number of electrons lost or gained. - **Covalency**: This refers to the number of bonds an atom forms with other atoms. ### Step 2: Write the Formula The complex ion we are analyzing is \([AlCl(H_2O)_5]^{2+}\). ...
