Dominant and diminished sevenths?


could someone be so kind as to give me the exact notes of diminished and dominant seventh chords in the keys of c,a, and f sharp? thank you

Just in case you want the notes to the chords - C, A and F# and didn't mean those keys - here ya go:

Cdim7 = C Eb Gb Bbb(A)
C7 = C E G Bb

Adim7 = A C Eb Gb
A7 = A C# E G

F#dim7 = F# A C Eb
F#7 = F# A# C# E

Notice that all three diminished chords have the exact same notes in them. Eb diminished would have these same notes too.

Look up this kind of stuff on musictheory.net

Are you asking for triad diminished chords? Or seventh diminished chords? If they are seventh chords then are you asking for fully or halfway diminished chords? I'm going to assume triads. And are the keys major or minor? I'm going to assume major.

Key of C:
vii dim triad - b,d,f
vii7 half dim - b,d,f,a
vii7 fully dim - b,d,f,a(flat)
V7 - c,e,g,b(flat)
Key of A:
vii dim triad - g#,b,d
vii7 half dim - g#,b,d,f#
vii7 fully dim - g#,b,d,f
V7 - e,g#,b,d
Key of F#:
vii dim - e#,g#,b
vii7 half dim - e#,g#,b,d#
vii7 fully dim - e#,g#,b,d
V7 - c#,e#,g#,b

The diatonic diminished seventh chord (also known as the half-diminished 7th chord) is built in thirds starting on the seventh step of the scale: in C (b,d,f,a) , in A (g#,b,d,f#) and in F# (e#, g#,b, d#).

The diatonic dominant 7th chord is built in thirds starting on the fifth step of the scale: in C (g,b,d,f) , in A (e,g#,b,d), and in F# (c#,e#,g#,b).

Go to this site and click on "sheet music". There are several chord charts there that will show you the printed chords:

Here is a site that has an interactive keyboard that will show you the chords placed on the keyboard:

Enjoy.

Not sure what you mean, exactly. Do you mean the diminished and dominant seventh chords that occur diatonically in these keys? Or do you want a C dim7 chord and C7 chord, and a A dim 7 chord, etc.?

In the key of C major, the only naturally occurring dom7 chord is G7: GBDF. There are no diminished 7th chords that occur in C major, without changing any notes. (the closest you can get is a B half-dim 7: BDFA). In A major, E7: E G# BD, and in F# major: C# E# G# B

If you mean those chords based on C, A, F# as the ROOT of the chord:
C dim7: C Eb, Gb, Bbb (NOT A natural)
C7: C E G Bb
A dim 7: A C Eb Gb
A7: A C# E G
F# dim 7: F# A C Eb
F#7: F# A# C# E

Adding Eb dim7 to the mix (Eb Gb Bbb Dbb), and you'll notice that, as mentioned by another user, all the dim7 chords here have the same notes, spelled enharmonically. But remember that the enharmonic spelling of these chords changes the function. A C dim7 chord will resolve somewhere different than an A dim 7 chord...
