In problems 4.28 to 4.51, refer to Table 4.3 for isotopic abundances where needed.

(a) Predict what you would expect to see in the ¹⁵N NMR spectrum of the isotopically labelled compound cis-[Pt(¹⁵NH₃)₂Cl₂]. 

(b) The observed coupling constants for this compound are J_15N1H = 74 Hz and J_15N195Pt = 303 Hz. Using your predicted spectrum as a starting point, explain why the observed spectrum is an apparent octet.
