  • question_answer
    A complex of molecular formula \[CrC{{l}_{3}}.6{{H}_{2}}O\] has green colour. 0.1 mole of the complex when treated with excess of \[AgN{{O}_{3}}\] gave 28.7 g of white precipitate of \[AgCl\] (Molar mass = 143.5 g). The formula of the complex would be

    A) \[\left[ Cr{{\left( {{H}_{2}}O \right)}_{6}} \right]C{{l}_{3}}\]

    B) \[\left[ CrCl{{\left( {{H}_{2}}O \right)}_{5}} \right]C{{l}_{2}}.{{H}_{2}}O\]

    C) \[\left[ CrC{{l}_{2}}{{\left( {{H}_{2}}O \right)}_{4}} \right]Cl.2{{H}_{2}}O\]

    D) \[\left[ Cr{{\left( {{H}_{2}}O \right)}_{3}}C{{l}_{3}} \right]\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] \[\underset{0.1\,mol}{\mathop{CrC{{l}_{3}}.6{{H}_{2}}O}}\,+AgN{{O}_{3}}\left( excess \right)\xrightarrow{{}}\underset{28.7g}{\mathop{AgCl}}\,\] No. of moles of \[AgCl=\frac{28.7}{143.5}\approx 0.2\text{ }mol\]
