MCQ
Which of the following is non-conducting ?
  • A
    $CoCl_3.6NH_3$
  • B
    $CoCl_3.5NH_3$
  • C
    $CoCl_3.4NH_3$
  • $CoCl_3.3NH_3$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$CoCl_3.3NH_3$
d
As in octahedral complex, $\left[ CoCl _3 .3 NH _3\right]$ doesn't form any ion so it is nonconducting.

But other complex give atleast one ion so they are conductor.

$CoCl _3 .4 NH _3$ gives two ion (one complex $+$ one chloride).

$CoCl _3 .5 NH _3$ gives three ion (one complex $+$ two chloride).

Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.

Assertion $(A)$ : $\alpha$-halocarboxylic acid on reaction with dil. $NH _3$ gives good yield of $\alpha$-amino carboxylic acid whereas the yield of amines is very low when prepared from alkyl halides.

Reason $(R):$ Amino acids exist in zwitter ion form in aqueous medium.
