Given below are two statements : Statement I : [Co(NH_3)_6]^ 3+ is...
Given below are two statements :
Statement I : is a homoleptic complex whereas \left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_4 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right]^{+}is a heteroleptic complex.
Statement II : Complex has only one kind of ligands but \left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_4 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right]^{+}has more than one kind of ligands.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below.
Options
- ABoth Statement I and Statement II are false
- BStatement I is true but Statement II is false
- CStatement I is false but Statement II is true
- DBoth Statement I and Statement II are true
Correct answer
D. Both Statement I and Statement II are true
Step-by-step solution
\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_6\right]^{3+}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)\mathrm{Co}^{3+}\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_4 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right]^{+}is a heteroleptic complex in which ion is ligated with more than one type of ligands, i.e., and .
