Why does NaCl give a white precipitate w...

Why does `NaCl` give a white precipitate with `AgNO_(3)` solution but `C Cl_(4)` does not ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

NaCl is an ionic compound and hence gives `1 Cl^(-)` ions in the solution which combine with `Ag^(+)` ions gives by
` AgNO_(3)` to form a white precipitete of AgCl but ` Ccl_(4)` is a covalent compound and does not give `Cl^(-)` ions .

    Out of benzyl chloride and chlorobenzene, which will give a white precipitate with AgNO_(3) solution?

    Statement-1. Co(NH_(3))_(2)Cl_(3) gives white precipitate with AgNO_(3) solution. Statement-2. Chlorine is not present in the ionising sphere.

    C CI_(4) cannot give precipitate with AgNO_(3) due to.

    C Cl_4 does not give a precipitate with AgNO_(3) . Its reason is:

    An octahedral complex with molecular composition M.5NH_(3).Cl.SO_(4) has two isomers. A and B. The solution A gives a white precipitation with AgNO_(3) solution and the solution of B gives white precipitate with BaCl_(2) solution. The type of isomerism exhibited by the complex is :
