Solution

The correct option is C Mohr's salt
Mohr's salt is a compound known to contain two primary cations, namely the ammonium cation (denoted by NH+4) and the ferrous cation (denoted by Fe2+). Therefore, Mohr’s salt can be categorized as a double salt of ammonium sulphate and ferrous sulphate.
All others are complexes.
