The value of x in the complex H(x)Co(CO)...

The value of x in the complex `H_(x)Co(CO)_(4)`, on the basis of E.A.N. rule is (At. No. Co = 27)

A

5

B

1

C

4

D

None of these.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

At. No. of Co = 27 (Kr)
At. No. of nexf noble gas = 36 (Kr)
`:.` Number of electrons to be provided by H-atom
x = 36 `- (27+4xx2 ) = 36 - 35 ` = 1
`:.` Formula of complex compound is `Hco(CO)_(4)` Therefoe value of x is 1
