The covalency of A 1 in `[AI CI (H_2 O)_5]^(2+)` is

A

3

B

5

C

1

D

6

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Covalency is the number of bonds formed by central metal atom with ligands. In
`[AlCl(H_(2)O)_(5)]^(2+)`, Al central metal atom is bonded by coordination bond with one chlorine and 5 water molecules. So, covalency is 6.
