Q5.28:
How many ions are produced from the complex \(Co(NH_{3})_{6}Cl_{2}\) in solution?
How many ions are produced from the complex \(Co(NH_{3})_{6}Cl_{2}\) in solution?
Solution :
Step 1: Analyzing the Chemical Formula and Coordination Sphere
The provided complex is written as $[Co(NH_3)_6]Cl_2$. To determine the number of ions produced in an aqueous solution, we must apply the principles of Werner’s Coordination Theory. In coordination chemistry, the species within the square brackets $[...]$ constitute the coordination sphere and act as a single entity that does not dissociate into its constituent ligands or the central metal ion upon dissolution in water.
The species outside the coordination sphere are the counter-ions, which are ionically bonded to the complex cation and dissociate completely when placed in a polar solvent like water [Per the Arrhenius theory of electrolytic dissociation].
Step 2: Dissociation Reaction
The dissociation of the complex in an aqueous medium follows the chemical equation:
$[Co(NH_3)_6]Cl_2 (s) \xrightarrow{H_2O} [Co(NH_3)_6]^{2+} (aq) + 2Cl^{-} (aq)$
Step 3: Calculating Total Ion Count
By observing the stoichiometry of the dissociation reaction above:
- Complex Cation: The coordination entity $[Co(NH_3)_6]^{2+}$ remains intact as one unit.
- Anions: The two chloride atoms outside the coordination sphere dissociate as two independent $Cl^{-}$ ions.
Total ions produced = (Number of complex cations) + (Number of counter-ions)
Total ions = $1 + 2 = 3$
Visual Representation of Dissociation
Step 4: Conclusion
Based on the electrolytic dissociation of the salt, the complex $[Co(NH_3)_6]Cl_2$ yields one hexamminecobalt(II) cation and two chloride anions in an aqueous solution, totaling three ions per formula unit [By the Law of Conservation of Mass and charge neutrality].
Final Solution: The complex produces a total of 3 ions (1 complex cation and 2 chloride anions) in solution.

Teaching experience to students always feel challenging to me. Because every student has its own intellect power n grasping capability too. So understand them n teaching as per their ability is quite interesting. I love to teach those students who always try to grow themselves.

I have one year of teaching experience at the university level, where I taught PG (M.Com) students in both offline and online modes. I am UGC NET qualified in Commerce, which has strengthened my subject knowledge and conceptual understanding. Teaching at the postgraduate level has helped me develop clarity in core commerce subjects. I am confident that I can explain concepts in a simple and effective manner and adapt my teaching style to suit the learning needs of Class 12 students as per the CBSE syllabus.
