Q.

A Solution containing 2.675 g of CoCl3 .6NH3 (molar mass = 267.5 mol-1 ) is passed through a cation exchanger. The chloride ions obtained in solution were treated with excess of AgNO3 to give 4.78 gof AgCI (molar mass = 143.5 g mo1-1 ) . The formula of the complex is (At. mass of Ag=108 u)

Moles of CoCl36NH3=2.675267.5=1100 mole =0.01 mole

Moles of AgCl=4.78143.5=3100 mole =0.03 mole 

0.01 mole of compound gives moles of AgCI = 0.03 mole 

So, 1 mole of compound gives moles of AgCl=0.030.01=3 mole,So, structural formula of 

compound having 3Cl- ions out side of coordination sphere, so formula is CoNH36Cl3
