AI Generated Solution

To determine the geometry of the complex ion \([Co(NH_3)_3(H_2O)_2Cl]^+\), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Determine the oxidation state of cobalt (Co) Let the oxidation state of cobalt be \(x\). The ligands in the complex are: - Ammonia (\(NH_3\)) is a neutral ligand (0 charge). - Water (\(H_2O\)) is also a neutral ligand (0 charge). - Chloride (\(Cl\)) is a negatively charged ligand (-1 charge). ...
