$1:2$

Vedclass · Answer

(A) The given coordination compound is $[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]Cl_2$. When this compound dissolves in water,it dissociates into ions as follows: $[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]Cl_2 \rightarrow [Co(NH_3)_5Cl]^{2+} + 2Cl^-$. Here,the complex ion $[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]^{2+}$ acts as one unit and there are two chloride ions $(Cl^-)$. Thus,the ratio of the complex ion to the chloride ions is $1:2$. Therefore,it is a $1:2$ type electrolyte.

The electrolyte $[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]Cl_2$ is which of the following type?
