Question
Of the following complex ions, the one that probably has the largest overall formation constant, Kf, is :
Options
A.[Co(NH3)6]3+
B.[Co(H2O)6]3+
C.[Co(NH3)2(H2O)4]3+
D.[Co(en)3]3+
Solution
(D) Chelate complex has higher stability than the similar complexes having monodentate ligands and an higher stability means higher overall formation constant.
