The correct Answer is:
To determine the increasing order of conductivity of the given coordination complexes, we need to analyze the number of ions produced when each complex dissociates in solution. The conductivity of a solution is directly related to the number of ions present; more ions lead to higher conductivity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the complexes:** - Complex 1: \([Co(NH_3)_3Cl_3]\) - Complex 2: \([Co(NH_3)_4Cl_2]Cl\) - Complex 3: \([Co(NH_3)_6]Cl_3\) - Complex 4: \([Cr(NH_3)_5Cl]Cl_2\) 2. **Determine the number of ions produced by each complex:** - **Complex 1: \([Co(NH_3)_3Cl_3]\)** - This complex does not dissociate into any additional ions in solution. It remains as one unit. - Total ions = 1 (the complex itself) - **Complex 2: \([Co(NH_3)_4Cl_2]Cl\)** - This complex dissociates into one complex ion and one chloride ion. - Total ions = 2 (1 complex ion + 1 Cl⁻) - **Complex 3: \([Co(NH_3)_6]Cl_3\)** - This complex dissociates into one complex ion and three chloride ions. - Total ions = 4 (1 complex ion + 3 Cl⁻) - **Complex 4: \([Cr(NH_3)_5Cl]Cl_2\)** - This complex dissociates into one complex ion and two chloride ions. - Total ions = 3 (1 complex ion + 2 Cl⁻) 3. **Summarize the total ions for each complex:** - Complex 1: 1 ion - Complex 2: 2 ions - Complex 3: 4 ions - Complex 4: 3 ions 4. **Arrange the complexes in increasing order of conductivity:** - Since conductivity increases with the number of ions, we can arrange them as follows: - Complex 1: 1 ion (lowest conductivity) - Complex 2: 2 ions - Complex 4: 3 ions - Complex 3: 4 ions (highest conductivity) ### Final Order: The increasing order of conductivity is: \[ [Co(NH_3)_3Cl_3] < [Co(NH_3)_4Cl_2]Cl < [Cr(NH_3)_5Cl]Cl_2 < [Co(NH_3)_6]Cl_3 \]
