A, B and C are three complexes of chromium (III) with the empirical formula H12O6Cl3Cr. All the three complexes have water and chloride ions as ligands. Complex A does not react with concentrated H2SO4, whereas complexes B and C lose 6.75% and 13.5% of their original weight respectively, on treatment with concentrated H2SO4.
Thus, loss in weight on treatment with concentrated
H2SO4 is due to
