MCQ
Barium ions$, \mathrm{CN}^{-}$ and $\mathrm{Co}^{2+}$ form an ionic complex. If that complex is supposed to be $75 \%$ ionised in water with vant Hoff factor $' i\ '$ equal to four, then the coordination number of $\mathrm{Co}^{2+}$ in the complex can be.
  • Six
  • B
    Five
  • C
    Four
  • D
    Six and Four both

Answer

Correct option: A.
Six
Complex formed is $\mathrm{Bq}_2\left[\mathrm{CO}(\mathrm{CN})_6\right]$ in which oxidation of $CO$ is $(2+)$ and $CN$ of $CO$ is six.

A trinitro compound, $1, 3,5$ tris-($4$-nitrophenyl) benzene, on complete reaction with an excess of $\mathrm{Sn} / \mathrm{HCl}$ gives major product, which on treatment with an excess of $NaNO_2 /  HCl$ at $0^{\circ} C$ provides $P$ as the product. $P$, upon treatment with excess of $H_2 O$ at room temperature, gives the product $Q$. Bromination of $Q$ in aqueous medium furnishes the product $R$. The compound $P$ upon treatment with an excess of phenol under basic conditions gives the product $S$.
