Number of ions produced by hydrolysis of Cr(NH3)4Cl3 reacting with AgNO3 to give 1 mol of AgCl, will be
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Only 1 mol of AgCl is produced on reacting Cr(NH3)4Cl3 with AgNO3.
∴ Only one Cl- is available after dissociation to react with AgNO3.
Formula of coordination compound will be: [Cr(NH3)4Cl2]Cl
[Cr(NH3)4Cl2]Cl → [Cr(NH3)4Cl2]+ + Cl-
[Cr(NH3)4Cl2]Cl + AgNO3 → [Cr(NH3)4Cl2]NO3 + AgCl
