As it forms two moles of silver chloride thus it has two moles of ionisable Cl.
- [Co(NH3)5NO2]Cl2 → [Co(NH3)5NO2]2+ + 2Cl−
- 2Cl− + 2AgNO3 → 2AgCl + 2NO3−
- [Co(NH3)5NO2]Cl2 → [Co(NH3)5NO2]2+ + 2Cl− + 2AgNO3
- 2Cl− + 2AgNO3 → 2AgCl + NO3−
Correct answer: [Co(NH3)5NO2]Cl2 → [Co(NH3)5NO2]2+ + 2Cl−
Solution
The compound [Co(NH3)5NO2]Cl2 ionizes to give two moles of Cl− ions, which react with AgNO3 to form two moles of AgCl. This matches the reaction in option A.
