Lanthanides contraction & bond length
« on: October 09, 2005, 11:22:31 AM »
The atomic radii of Pd & Pt are close to each other, and how about the bond length when they are binding to ligands such as Cl-?

Are the bond lengths of Pd-Cl & Pt-Cl also close to each other?
If yes, is it due to lanthanides contraction?
