Which one of the following has the highest molar conductivity?
Options
- ADiammine dichloroplatinum (II)
- BTetraamminedichlorocobalt (III) chloride
- CPotasșium hexacyano ferrate (II)
- DHexa aquo chromium (III) chloride
Correct answer
C. Potasșium hexacyano ferrate (II)
Step-by-step solution
Highest molar conductivity (for equimolar solutions) will be exhibited by the complex that will dissociate into a greater number of ions in the solution. aligned & [ Pt ( NH ₃ )₂ Cl ₂ ]=0 & [ Co ( NH ₃ )₄ Cl ₂ ] Cl =2 & ~K ₄ [ Fe ( CN )₆ ]=5 & [ Cr ( H ₂ O )₆ ] Cl ₃=4 aligned Thus, potassium hexacyano ferrate (II) will have the highest molar conductivity.
