Question
Which one is the most likely structure of CrCl3·6H2O if 1/3 of total chlorine of the compound is precipitated by adding AgNO3 to its aqueous solution:
Options
A.CrCl3·6H2O
B.[CrCl3(H2O)3]·(H2O)3
C.[CrCl2(H2O)4]·Cl·2H2O
D.[CrCl(H2O)5]Cl2 ·H2O
Solution
Sol. $\frac{1}{3}$of total chlorine ⇒ 1 chlorine is precipitated ⇒ 1 chlorine should be out co-ordination sphere
