JEE MAIN - Chemistry (2022 - 29th June Evening Shift - No. 20)

For the reaction given below :

CoCl3 . xNH3 + AgNO3 (aq) $$\to$$

If two equivalents of AgCl precipitate out, then the value of x will be _____________.

Answer
5

Explanation

$$ \begin{aligned} &\mathrm{CoCl}_3 \cdot \mathrm{xNH}_3+\mathrm{AgNO}_3 \rightarrow \underset{\text{2 mol}}{\mathrm{AgCl} \downarrow}\\\\ &\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_5 \mathrm{Cl}\right] \mathrm{Cl}_2+\mathrm{AgNO}_3 \rightarrow \underset{\text{2 mol}}{\mathrm{AgCl}} \downarrow\\\\ &x=5 \end{aligned} $$
