The correct Answer is:
To determine the IUPAC name of the complex \([Co(SO_4)(NH_3)_4]NO_3\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the components of the complex The complex consists of: - Cobalt (Co) - Sulfate ion \((SO_4)^{2-}\) - Ammonia ligands \((NH_3)\) ### Step 2: Determine the oxidation state of cobalt Let \(x\) be the oxidation state of cobalt. The overall charge of the complex ion is +1 (due to the nitrate ion outside the complex). The sulfate ion has a charge of -2, and ammonia is neutral. The equation can be set up as follows: \[ x + (-2) + 0 = +1 \] Solving for \(x\): \[ x - 2 = 1 \implies x = 3 \] Thus, the oxidation state of cobalt is +3. ### Step 3: Name the ligands - The ammonia ligand is named "ammine." - The sulfate ion is named "sulfato." ### Step 4: Count the number of each ligand There are four ammonia ligands, which is indicated by the prefix "tetra-": - Tetraammine for four ammonia ligands. - Sulfato for the sulfate ion. ### Step 5: Combine the names of the ligands When naming the ligands, they are listed in alphabetical order: - "Ammine" comes before "sulfato." Thus, we write: - Tetraammine - Sulfato ### Step 6: Name the metal with its oxidation state The metal cobalt with its oxidation state of +3 is named as "cobalt(III)." ### Step 7: Name the outer ion The outer ion is nitrate, which is simply named "nitrate." ### Step 8: Combine all parts to form the complete name The complete IUPAC name of the complex is: \[ \text{Tetraammine sulfato cobalt(III) nitrate} \] ### Final Answer The IUPAC name of the complex \([Co(SO_4)(NH_3)_4]NO_3\) is **Tetraammine sulfato cobalt(III) nitrate**. ---
