Question
A mixture containing 0.02 mole of $[Co(NH_3)_5SO_4]Br$ and 0.02 mole of $[Co(NH_3)_5Br]SO_4$ is dissolved in 2 L of solution. 1 L of this mixture is treated with excess aqueous $AgNO_3$. What is the amount of precipitate formed?
Answer: A
💡 Solution & Explanation
1 L contains 0.01 mole of each complex. Only the $Br^-$ outside the coordination sphere in $[Co(NH_3)_5SO_4]Br$ will precipitate with $Ag^+$. Thus, 0.01 mole of $AgBr$ forms [3, 4].
