B

`Cu^(2+)4CN^(-) to [Cu(CN)_(4)]^(3-)," " K=2.0xx10^(27)`

C

`Cu^(2+)+2en to [Cu(en)_(2)]^(2+)," " K=3.0xx10^(15)`

D

`Cu^(2+)+4H_(2)O to [Cu(H_(2)O)_(4)]^(2+)," : K=9.5xx10^(8)`

The correct Answer is:
To determine which complex is the most stable based on the provided stability constants, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Stability Constant The stability constant (K) is an equilibrium constant that indicates the stability of a complex formed in solution. A higher value of K signifies a more stable complex. ### Step 2: Analyze Given Stability Constants We have the following hypothetical stability constants for different complexes: - Option 1: \( K_1 = 10^{11} \) - Option 2: \( K_2 = 2 \times 10^{27} \) - Option 3: \( K_3 = 2^{15} \) - Option 4: \( K_4 = 10^{8} \) ### Step 3: Compare the Values To find the most stable complex, we need to compare the numerical values of the stability constants: - \( K_1 = 10^{11} \) - \( K_2 = 2 \times 10^{27} \) (This is the largest) - \( K_3 = 2^{15} \) which is approximately \( 32768 \) (or \( 3.2768 \times 10^4 \)) - \( K_4 = 10^{8} \) ### Step 4: Identify the Highest Value From the comparison: - \( K_2 = 2 \times 10^{27} \) is significantly larger than the other values. ### Conclusion Thus, the complex corresponding to Option 2, which has the stability constant \( K_2 = 2 \times 10^{27} \), is the most stable complex among all the given options.
