Explanation / Answer

1)

the steps to get the formula are

a) find the central metal atom

in this case

it is Co+3

b)

now tetraammine

so

there are 4 NH3 groups

and

1 carbonate group

so

we get

Co(NH3)4(C03)]

now

we know that

C03 has -2 charge

and

Co has +3 charge

so

overall charge of Co(NH3)4(C03)] is 3-2 = 1

now

S04 has -2 charge

so

the formula should be

[Co(CO3)(NH3)4]2SO4

2)

similarly

[Pt(en)2Cl2]Br2

3)

K[V(H2O)2Br4]

4)

[Zn(en)2][HgI4]
