One molal solution of a complex of cobalt chloeide with `NH_(3)` in aqueous s0olution shows boiling point elevaton of `2.08^(@)`. Assuming that the complex is compleltely ionised in solution, the xomplex is `(K_(b)"for water"=0.52 K kg mol^(-1))`.
A. `[Co(NH_(3))_(6)]CI_(3)`
B. `[Co(NH_(3))_(5)CI]CI_(2)`
C. `[Co(NH_(3))_(4)CI]CI_(2)I CI`
D. None of these.

Correct Answer - a
`(DeltaT_(b))/(K_(b)m)=((2.08K))/((0.52 K mol^(-1))xx(1m))=4`
This shows that the complex produces four ions in aqueous solution. Correct option is (a).
`[CO(NH_(3))_(6)]CI_(3)overset(("aq"))hArr[CO(NH_(3))_(6)]^(+)+3CI^(-)`
