Vedclass · Answer

(A) The given complex is $[Cr(H_2O)_4Br_2]Cl$. When dissolved in water,it ionizes as: $[Cr(H_2O)_4Br_2]Cl \rightarrow [Cr(H_2O)_4Br_2]^+ + Cl^-$. The $Cl^-$ ion is present in the ionization sphere (outside the coordination sphere),so it is free to react and can be detected by a test (e.g.,with $AgNO_3$). The $Br^-$ ions are inside the coordination sphere,bonded to the central metal atom,and do not ionize in the aqueous solution. Therefore,only the $Cl^-$ ion test is given.

The complex salt $[Cr(H_2O)_4Br_2]Cl$ gives a test for which of the following ions in its aqueous solution?
