Q5.6 (v):
Using IUPAC norms write the formulas: Pentaamminenitrito-O-cobalt(III)
Solution :
Step 1: Identification of Components
To determine the chemical formula of the coordination compound Pentaamminenitrito-O-cobalt(III), we break down the IUPAC name into its constituent parts:
- Central Metal Ion: Cobalt ($Co$). The Roman numeral (III) indicates an oxidation state of $+3$.
- Ligands:
- "Pentaammine": This signifies five ammine ligands ($NH_3$). Since ammine is a neutral ligand, its charge is $0$.
- "Nitrito-O": This signifies one nitrite ligand ($NO_2^-$) that coordinates via the oxygen atom. The charge on the nitrito group is $-1$.
- Coordination Sphere: The ligands and the metal ion are enclosed within square brackets $[ \dots ]$.
Step 2: Determining the Charge of the Coordination Entity
The total charge of the coordination sphere ($x$) is the sum of the oxidation state of the metal ion and the charges of all ligands present [Per IUPAC coordination chemistry nomenclature]:
$x = (\text{Oxidation state of } Co) + 5 \times (\text{Charge of } NH_3) + 1 \times (\text{Charge of } ONO^-)$
$x = (+3) + 5(0) + 1(-1)$
$x = +3 - 1 = +2$
Thus, the complex ion is $[Co(NH_3)_5(ONO)]^{2+}$.
Step 3: Structural Representation
The "nitrito-O" linkage indicates that the oxygen atom is the donor atom. The IUPAC notation for the nitrito-O ligand is written as $ONO$ or $ONO^-$, distinguishing it from the nitro ($NO_2$) ligand which coordinates via the nitrogen atom.
Step 4: Final Formula Synthesis
Combining these components into the standard coordination formula format:
The coordination entity is $[Co(NH_3)_5(ONO)]^{2+}$. Since no counter-ion is specified in the prompt (as it refers to the complex ion itself), the final formula is represented as:
$[Co(NH_3)_5(ONO)]^{2+}$
Final Solution: [Co(NH₃)₅(ONO)]²⁺

I am a Physics educator with 24+ years of teaching experience, specializing in CBSE, ISC, State Boards, and Class 12 Physics. Over the years, I have taught 100,000+ students, helping them build strong conceptual foundations and achieve excellent results in Board examinations as well as competitive entrance tests. My approach to teaching is simple: make every concept easy to understand, regardless of a student's current level. I focus on building strong fundamentals first, followed by numerical problem-solving, derivations, practical applications, and exam-oriented preparation. This enables students to perform confidently in both Board examinations and entrance exams like JEE Main and NEET. My classes include: complete Class 12 Physics syllabus; chapter-wise concept building and numericals; Board-oriented derivations and theory preparation; Previous Years' Questions (PYQs) and sample papers; regular tests, assignments, and performance analysis; personalized doubt-solving and revision sessions; premium study materials and handwritten notes. Every student learns differently, so I adapt my teaching style to suit each student's pace and learning needs. My objective is not only to help students score excellent marks in Class 12 but also to develop a deep understanding of Physics that prepares them for future academic success.
