Which of the following facts about the complex [Cr(NH3)6]Cl3 is wrong?
The complex involves d2sp3 hybridisation and is octahedral in shape.
The complex is paramagnetic.
The complex is an outer orbital complex.
The complex is an outer orbital complex.
A solution containing 2.675 of CoCl3. 6NH3(molar mass = 267.5 g mol–1) is passed through a cation exchanger. The chloride ions obtained is solution was treated with excess of AgNO3 to give 4.78 g of AgCl (molar mass = 143.5 g mol–1 ). The formula of the complex is
(At. mass of Ag = 108 u)
[Co(NH3)6]Cl3
[CoCl2(NH3)4]Cl
[CoCl3(NH3)3]
[CoCl3(NH3)3]
A.
[Co(NH3)6]Cl3
CoCl. 6NH3 + AgNO3 → AgCl
2.675/2667.5 excess 4.78/143.5
= 0.01 mole = 0.03310 mole
because 0.01 mole CoCl3.6NH3 given 0.0331 mole AgCl.
hence 1 mole of CoCl3.6NH3 will given 0.03310/0.010 =3 mole.
Thus the formula of the compound will be [Co(NH3)6]Cl3
