The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion:** - The assertion states that the complex \([Co(NH_3)_3Cl_3]\) gives a white precipitate with \(AgNO_3\) solution. - To evaluate this, we need to consider whether the chlorine in this complex is ionizable. In coordination compounds, ligands that are part of the coordination sphere (like \(NH_3\) and \(Cl\) in this case) do not dissociate into ions when the complex is dissolved. 2. **Analyzing the Reaction:** - When \(AgNO_3\) is added to a solution containing ionizable chloride ions (\(Cl^-\)), a white precipitate of silver chloride (\(AgCl\)) forms: \[ Ag^+ + Cl^- \rightarrow AgCl \, (s) \] - However, in the complex \([Co(NH_3)_3Cl_3]\), the chlorine atoms are part of the coordination sphere and are not available as free chloride ions. Therefore, no reaction occurs, and no white precipitate is formed. 3. **Conclusion on the Assertion:** - Since the chlorine in \([Co(NH_3)_3Cl_3]\) is non-ionizable, the assertion is **false**. 4. **Understanding the Reason:** - The reason states that chlorine always gives a white precipitate with \(AgNO_3\) solution. - This statement is misleading because only ionizable chlorine (i.e., chloride ions that are free in solution) will react with \(AgNO_3\) to form a precipitate. Chlorine that is part of a coordination complex does not react in this way. 5. **Conclusion on the Reason:** - Since the reason is also incorrect (as it generalizes the behavior of chlorine without considering its ionization state), the reason is **false**. 6. **Final Evaluation:** - Both the assertion and the reason are false. Therefore, the correct answer is option 4: both assertion and reason are false.
