Identify heteroleptic complex from following.

  • Correct answer
    A
    Tetraamminediaquacobalt (III) chloride
  • B
    Hexaamminecobalt (III) bromide
  • C
    Potassium tetrahydroxozincate (II)
  • D
    Tetracarbonyl nickel $(0)$

Solution

\begin{array}{|l|c|} \hline \multicolumn{1}{|c|}{ Complex } & Formula \\ \hline \begin{array}{l} Tetraamminediaquacobalt(III) \\ chloride \end{array} & {\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_4\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_2\right] \mathrm{Cl}_3} \\ \hline Hexaamminecobalt(III) bromide & {\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_6\right] \mathrm{Br}_3} \\ \hline Potassium tetrahydroxozincate(II) & \mathrm{K}_2\left[\mathrm{Zn}(\mathrm{OH})_4\right] \\ \hline Tetracarbonyl nickel(0) & {\left[\mathrm{Ni}(\mathrm{CO})_4\right]} \\ \hline \end{array}

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
