Question

how many ions are produced from the complex [co(nh3)6]2(so4)3?

Answer 1

Answer:

i did not understand, i am sorry

Answer 2

Five ions are formed.

• The complex compound contains a central metal atom that is connected with ligands. Here the atoms do not remain in their own identity. The property of a complex compound is different from its constituents.
• The complex $[Co(NH_3)_6]_2{(SO_4)}_3$ when dissolved in water dissociates as follows-
• $[Co(NH_3)_6]_2{(SO_4)}_3\rightarrow 2[Co(NH_3)_6]^{+3}+3SO_4^{2-}$
• Hence it forms a total of five ions.
