Solution

A hydrate that is hexahydrate form of ferrous ammonium sulfate,containing two different cations, $F e^{2 +}$ and $N H_{4}^{+}$ ,thus classified as a double salt $K_{4} [F e (C N)_{6}]$ is the inorganic compound with pottasium salt of co ordination complex $[F e (C N)_{6}]^{-}$ thus a complex compound.
