Coordination Compounds question

2019 · 12 Apr · Shift 2 · Q5

JEE MainChemistryCoordination CompoundsMCQ+4 / −1
The compound used in the treatment of lead poisoning is :
  1. A
    desferrioxime B
  2. B
    Cis-platin
  3. C
    D-penicillamine
  4. D
    EDTA
View written solutionFree

Correct answer: D

  1. Identify the medical use of each compound

    We compare the given coordination/chelating agents:

    • A: Desferrioxime B
      This is used for iron poisoning because it chelates Fe3+\mathrm{Fe^{3+}}Fe3+.

    • B: Cis-platin
      This is an anticancer drug, not a treatment for lead poisoning.

    • C: D-penicillamine
      This is mainly used in copper poisoning and Wilson's disease.

    • D: EDTA
      EDTA and especially its calcium disodium salt, CaNa2EDTA\mathrm{CaNa_2EDTA}CaNa2​EDTA, is used as a chelating agent for lead poisoning.

  2. Conclusion

    Therefore, the compound used in the treatment of lead poisoning is: EDTA\boxed{\text{EDTA}}EDTA​

  3. Option check

    • A: Incorrect
    • B: Incorrect
    • C: Incorrect
    • D: Correct

So the correct option is D.
