The number of ions produced from one molecule of [Pt (NH3)5Br]Br3 in the aqueous solution will be
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
The correct answer is option 1. 4.
To determine the number of ions produced from one molecule of \([Pt(NH_3)_5Br]Br_3\) in an aqueous solution, we need to consider the dissociation of the complex and the dissociation of the \(Br_3^-\) ions.
The given complex is \([Pt(NH_3)_5Br]Br_3\).
When this complex dissolves in an aqueous solution, it dissociates as follows:
\([Pt(NH_3)_5Br]Br_3 \rightarrow [Pt(NH_3)_5Br]^{3+} + 3Br^-\).
Thus the complex \([Pt(NH_3)_5Br]Br_3\) forms a total of 4 ions.
