$A$ solution containing $2.675 \ g$ of $CoCl_3 \cdot 6NH_3$ (molar mass $= 267.5 \ g \ mol^{-1}$) is passed through a cation exchanger. The chloride ions obtained in the solution are treated with excess $AgNO_3$ to give $4.78 \ g$ of $AgCl$ (molar mass $= 143.5 \ g \ mol^{-1}$). The formula of the complex is $(Ag = 108 \ u)$:

  • A
    $[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]Cl_2$
  • B
    $[Co(NH_3)_6]Cl_3$
  • C
    $[Co(NH_3)_4Cl_2]Cl$
  • D
    $[Co(NH_3)_3Cl_3]$
