MCQ
In solid $CuS{O_4}.5{H_2}O$ copper is co-ordinated to
- AFive water molecules
- ✓Four water molecules
- COne sulphate anion
- DOne water molecule
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Four water molecules
b
(b)Four water molecules.
$CuS{O_4}.5{H_2}O$ is a crystalline salt. Four ${H_2}O$ molecules attach to copper forming a square planar symmetry and two oxygen atoms from $SO_4^{2 - }$ ion complete the distorted octahedron. The fifth water molecule is attached through hydrogen bonding between one of the co-ordinated water molecule and one of the sulphate ion.
