List out the wrong among the following according to IUPAC and write the correct formula: (a)`[Zn(OH)_4]K_2` , (b)`[CoCl(NH_3)_4(H_2O)]Cl_2`, (c)`[Ag(CN)_2][Ag(NH_3)_2]` and (d)`[Pt(NH_3)_2Cl(NO_2)]`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Formula (a), (b) and (c) are wrong and only (d) is the correct formula.
To correct (a) and (c) formula of cation is to be written first. After correction, the correct formula for (a) and (c) are `K_(2)[Zn(OH)_(4)]` and `[Ag(NH_(3))_(2)][Ag(CN)_(2)]`. To correct (b), ligands are to be in alphabetical order irrespective of charge. After correction, the correct formula of (b) is `[Co(NH_(3))_(4)(H_(2)O)Cl]Cl_(2)`
