Question
When AgNO3 is added to a solution of Co(NH3)5Cl3, the precipitante of AgCI shows two ionizable chloride ions. This mean:
Options
A.Two chlorine atoms satisfy primary valency and one secondary valency
B.One chlorine atom satisfies primary as well as secondary valency
C.Three chlorine atoms satisfy primary valency
D.Three chlorine atoms satisfy secondary valency
Solution
Since the precipitate of AgCI show two ionisable chloride ion the complex nuts have the structure [Co(NH3)5Cl] Cl2 + AgNO3 → [Co(NH3)5Cl[(NO3)2 + 2AgCl
Hence two chlorine atoms satisfty the primary valency and one, secondary valency.
Hence two chlorine atoms satisfty the primary valency and one, secondary valency.
