Solution
The correct option is A[Co(NH3)6]Cl3 In coordination compounds, the counter ions can react to give another product but the complex ion will not split in a solution.
Here, when one mole of a complex given when reacted with AgNO3 then the maximum counter ion compound will give the maximum amount of AgCl.
Hence, [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 having a maximum number of 3 counter ions in the given options will produce more amount of AgCl.
