[Co(CN)₆]³⁻ → Yellow
[Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ → Orange
[CoF₆]³⁻ → Blue
Explanation:
- All the given compounds have octahedral geometry but the ligand in each are different with the same metal ion.
- Ligands strength order: CN⁻ > NH₃ > F⁻
- The ligand CN will act as a strong field ligand so that the splitting is maximum when compared to NH₃ and F⁻
- If the splitting is more, the energy required for transition is more, and the wavelength is inversely proportional to energy.
- So CN complex will absorb at lower wavelength (yellow color)
Amount of oxygen in the compound = 160 g
Amount of oxygen in the compound = 20.2 gm
Mole of oxygen in the compound = 160/16
= 10 moles
Mole of hydrogen in the compound = 20.2/1.01
= 20 moles
Then
The ratio of oxygen to ration of hydrogen = 1:2
So
The empirical formula of the compound is H2O. I hope the answer has come to your help.
