Question

Arrange the increasing order of charges (molar conductivity) of the compounds used in Werner coordination theory

1. CoCl₃.6NH₃
2. CoCl₃.5NH₃
3. CoCl₃.4NH₃
4. CoCl₃.3NH₃

• A. (A), (B), (C), (D)
• B. (D), (C), (B), (A)
• C. (B), (A), (D), (C)
• D. (C), (B), (D), (A)

Hint:

The greater the number of dissociated ions, the higher the molar conductivity.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

In Werner theory, the molar conductivity is influenced by the number of ligands and the ionic dissociation of the complex. The increasing order is determined by the number of dissociated ions.
