Question

10.66 g of a chromium (III) complex having molecular formula : CrCl3(H2O)6 when treated with excess AgNO3 solution, 11.48 g of white precepitate is obtained. How much water is lost by 133.25 g of the given complex (in g) when it is treated with conc. H2SO4? (Assume the complex is octahedral) Atomic mass of Cr=52 u and Ag=108 u)

Solution

Number of moles of complex =10.66266.5=0.04
Number of moles of AgCl =11.48143.5=0.08
Complex is [Cr(H2O)5Cl]Cl2.H2O
When treated with H2SO4 (conc.) loss in mass is 9 g.
