Question
One mole of the complex with molecular formula [Co(NH3)5Cl3] gives two moles of AgCl with excess of AgNO3. The complex is
Answer: Option D
:
D
Two moles of AgCl with AgNO3 means that two ‘Cl’ atoms are ionisable. The third must be within the coordination sphere.
[Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2→[Co(NH3)5Cl]2++2Cl−2AgNO3−−−−−→2NO−3+2AgCl
