Q. On treatment of $100 m L$ of $0.1 M$ solution of the complex $C r C l_{3} \cdot 6 H_{2} O$ with excess of $A g N O_{3}, 4.305 g$ of $A g Cl$ was obtained. The complex is

$[C r (H_{2} O)_{3} C l_{3}] \cdot 3 H_{2} O$

$[C r (H_{2} O)_{4} C l_{2}] Cl \cdot 2 H_{2} O$

$[C r (H_{2} O)_{5} Cl] C l_{2} \cdot H_{2} O$

$[C r (H_{2} O)_{6}] C l_{3}$

$M o l$ . of $A g Cl = \frac{4.305}{143.5} = 0.03 = m o l$ of $C l^{-}$ given by the complex.

Mol. of the complex $= 100 \times 1 0^{- 3} \times 0.1 = 0.01$

$0.01 m o l [C r (H_{2} O)_{6}] C l_{3} ⟶ 0.01 m o l [C r (H_{2} O)_{6}]^{3 +} + 0.03 m o l 3 C l^{-}$
