when we have for example KPtCl3(NH3) complex, the Pt-N bond is probably more short bond that Pt-Cl... what can i say about them? should it influence the bond which is in trans position to NH3 substutuent? shouldnt it be affected by it, e.g. become weaker? what about orbitals? some polarization? when you have KPtCl3(NH3) molecule, and you add next 1 eq of NH3 to it, it will substute the chloride which is in cis position to NH3 which is aready in molecule, right? becaus NH3 has weaker trans effect than Cl- so it cant put in trans position to itself.
