The correct Answer is:
To find the Van't Hoff factor (i) for a dilute solution of \( K_3[Fe(CN)_6] \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the compound The compound given is \( K_3[Fe(CN)_6] \). This is a coordination complex where potassium ions (K\(^+\)) and the complex ion \( [Fe(CN)_6]^{3-} \) are present. ### Step 2: Write the dissociation reaction When \( K_3[Fe(CN)_6] \) is dissolved in water, it dissociates into its constituent ions. The dissociation can be represented as: \[ K_3[Fe(CN)_6] \rightarrow 3K^+ + [Fe(CN)_6]^{3-} \] ### Step 3: Count the number of particles produced From the dissociation reaction, we can see that: - 3 potassium ions (K\(^+\)) are produced. - 1 complex ion \( [Fe(CN)_6]^{3-} \) is produced. Thus, the total number of particles produced upon dissociation is: \[ n = 3 + 1 = 4 \] ### Step 4: Determine the Van't Hoff factor (i) The Van't Hoff factor (i) is defined as the number of particles into which a solute dissociates in solution. Therefore, for our case: \[ i = n = 4 \] ### Final Answer The Van't Hoff factor (i) for a dilute solution of \( K_3[Fe(CN)_6] \) is **4**. ---
