Q. Three moles of $AgCl$ get precipitated when one mole of an octahedral co-ordination compound with empirical formula $CrCl _{3} \cdot 3 NH _{3} \cdot 3 H _{2} O$ reacts with excess of silver nitrate. The number of chloride ions satisfying the secondary valency of the metal ion is______.

Solution:

Mole of $AgCl$ precipitated is equal the mole of $Cl ^{-}$present in ionization sphere.
