Lesson 1: General properties of TM
To write the electron structure of first row transition metals and their ions and describe what a transition metal is in terms of electron structure
That these characteristics include complex formation of coloured ions, variable oxidation state and catalytic activity

Lesson 2: TM complexes and ligands
To define the terms ligand, complex, co-ordinate bond and co-ordination number
Explain the difference between and give examples of monodentatate, bidentate and multidentate ligands.
To identify the oxidation state of the metal and understand the term co-ordination number
To know about oxygen transfer by haemoglobin

Lesson 3: Shapes of TM complexes
To give examples of and sketch the shapes of octahedral, tetrahedral, square planar and linear complexes
To understand how to name complexes
To know how some complexes can show cis-trans (E–Z)­ or optical isomerism
To know the complexes in cisplatin and Tollen’s reagent.

Lesson 3c: Ligands subsitution
To understand ligand exchange and explain why there may be a change in co-ordination number
To describe and explain the chelate effect in terms of entropy and enthalpy
To complete a series of exam questions to consolidate
To complete a series of practical sessions to consolidate (see prac. requirements ->)

Lesson 3d Practical - Ligand displacement series

Lesson 4 + 5: Coloured ions
To describe factors that affect the colour of TM ions
To explain why TM complexes are coloured
