Correct answer: 4

  1. Identify ionisable chloride ions

The complex is: [Cr(H2O)5Cl]Cl2\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{H_2O})_5\mathrm{Cl}\right]\mathrm{Cl}_2[Cr(H2​O)5​Cl]Cl2​

Here, one Cl−\mathrm{Cl^-}Cl− is inside the coordination sphere, and two Cl−\mathrm{Cl^-}Cl− ions are outside the coordination sphere.

Only the chloride ions outside the coordination sphere ionise in solution and get precipitated immediately by AgNO3\mathrm{AgNO_3}AgNO3​ as AgCl\mathrm{AgCl}AgCl.

So, each mole of [Cr(H2O)5Cl]Cl2\left[\mathrm{Cr}(\mathrm{H_2O})_5\mathrm{Cl}\right]\mathrm{Cl}_2[Cr(H2​O)5​Cl]Cl2​ gives 2 moles of precipitable Cl−\mathrm{Cl^-}Cl−.


  1. Moles of the complex in 20 mL of 0.01 M solution

Given:

  • Volume =20 mL=0.020 L= 20\,\mathrm{mL} = 0.020\,\mathrm{L}=20mL=0.020L
  • Molarity =0.01 M= 0.01\,\mathrm{M}=0.01M

Moles of complex: n=M×V=0.01×0.020=2.0×10−4 moln = M \times V = 0.01 \times 0.020 = 2.0 \times 10^{-4}\,\mathrm{mol}n=M×V=0.01×0.020=2.0×10−4mol


  1. Moles of chloride ions precipitated

Since 1 mole of complex gives 2 moles of free Cl−\mathrm{Cl^-}Cl−: n(Cl−)=2×2.0×10−4=4.0×10−4 moln(\mathrm{Cl^-}) = 2 \times 2.0 \times 10^{-4} = 4.0 \times 10^{-4}\,\mathrm{mol}n(Cl−)=2×2.0×10−4=4.0×10−4mol


  1. Reaction with silver nitrate

The precipitation reaction is: Ag++Cl−→AgCl(s)\mathrm{Ag^+ + Cl^- \rightarrow AgCl(s)}Ag++Cl−→AgCl(s)

Thus, moles of AgNO3\mathrm{AgNO_3}AgNO3​ required === moles of Cl−\mathrm{Cl^-}Cl− required to be precipitated: n(AgNO3)=4.0×10−4 moln(\mathrm{AgNO_3}) = 4.0 \times 10^{-4}\,\mathrm{mol}n(AgNO3​)=4.0×10−4mol


  1. Volume of 0.1 M AgNO3\mathrm{AgNO_3}AgNO3​ required

Using: V=nM=4.0×10−40.1=4.0×10−3 LV = \frac{n}{M} = \frac{4.0 \times 10^{-4}}{0.1} = 4.0 \times 10^{-3}\,\mathrm{L}V=Mn​=0.14.0×10−4​=4.0×10−3L

Convert to mL: 4.0×10−3 L=4 mL4.0 \times 10^{-3}\,\mathrm{L} = 4\,\mathrm{mL}4.0×10−3L=4mL


  1. Final answer

The required volume of 0.1 M0.1\,\mathrm{M}0.1M AgNO3\mathrm{AgNO_3}AgNO3​ is: 4 mL\boxed{4\,\mathrm{mL}}4mL​
