To solve the question regarding the coordination compound `CrCl3.6H2O`, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the Structure of the Complex Given the coordination compound `CrCl3.6H2O`, we know that it contains chromium (Cr) as the central metal ion, three chloride ions (Cl), and six water molecules (H2O) as ligands. When this compound is mixed with `AgNO3`, it precipitates 2 moles of AgCl, indicating that 2 chloride ions are not coordinated to the chromium and are available for reaction. This suggests that only one chloride ion is coordinated to the chromium ion. Thus, the structure of the complex can be represented as: ...
