The correct Answer is:
To determine the formula of the complex compound of chromium, we will analyze the information given step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the components of the complex The complex contains: - 1 chromium ion (Cr³⁺) - 5 ammonia (NH₃) molecules - 1 nitro group (NO₂⁻) - 2 chloride ions (Cl⁻) ### Step 2: Write the basic structure of the complex The basic structure can be represented as: \[ \text{[Cr(NH}_3\text{)}_5\text{(NO}_2\text{)}]\text{Cl}_2 \] This indicates that the chromium ion is coordinated with 5 ammonia molecules and 1 nitro group, while the 2 chloride ions are outside the coordination sphere. ### Step 3: Determine the charge balance - The charge of Cr³⁺ is +3. - Each NH₃ is neutral (0 charge). - The nitro group (NO₂) has a charge of -1. - Each Cl⁻ has a charge of -1. Now, let's calculate the total charge: - Total positive charge = +3 (from Cr³⁺) - Total negative charge = -1 (from NO₂) + 2 × (-1) (from 2 Cl⁻) = -1 - 2 = -3 Thus, the overall charge from the ligands is -3, which balances the +3 charge from Cr³⁺. ### Step 4: Count the total number of ions produced The problem states that one molecule of this compound produces three ions in aqueous solution. The ions produced are: - 1 cationic complex ion: [Cr(NH₃)₅(NO₂)]²⁺ - 2 chloride ions (Cl⁻) This gives a total of 3 ions: 1. [Cr(NH₃)₅(NO₂)]²⁺ 2. Cl⁻ 3. Cl⁻ ### Step 5: Reaction with AgNO₃ When this complex reacts with excess AgNO₃, it produces 2 moles of AgCl. Since AgCl precipitates from the chloride ions, the presence of 2 Cl⁻ ions confirms that there are indeed 2 chloride ions outside the coordination sphere. ### Conclusion: Write the final formula Combining all the information, the formula of the complex compound is: \[ \text{[Cr(NH}_3\text{)}_5\text{(NO}_2\text{)}]\text{Cl}_2 \] ### Final Answer: The formula of the complex compound is \[ \text{[Cr(NH}_3\text{)}_5\text{(NO}_2\text{)}]\text{Cl}_2 \]. ---
