Question
Werner investigated the structure of a series of five different complexes (labelled 1 2 3 4 5), all having the overall formula
PtCl4.nNH3 .
Werner analysed each complex and found the following number of free chloride ions and total number ions per formula, as listed in random order below.
Select the correct formulation label from the drop-down lists against each analysis result.
Formulations
PtCl4(NH3)2
Pt(NH3)64+, 4Cl
PtCl2(NH3)42+, 2Cl
PtCl3(NH3)3+, Cl
PtCl(NH3)53+, 3Cl
Free Cl Ions: 4; Total Ions: 5
