Which of the following pairs of compounds are more stable?
Options
- AK 2 N i C l 6 , P t ( C N ) 4 2 -
- BN i C l 4 , P t C l 4
- CN i ( C N ) 4 2 - , K 2 P t C l 6
- DP t C l 2 , N i C l 2
Correct answer
C. N i ( C N ) 4 2 - , K 2 P t C l 6
Step-by-step solution
By comparing the value of ionization energies the thermodynamic stability of transition metal compound can be compared. Ionization value shows that N i I I compound are more stable then P t ( I I ) compound while P t ( I V ) compound are relatively more stable than N i ( I V ) .
