A coordination complex compound of cobalt has the molecular formula containing five ammonia molecules, one nitro group and two chlorine atoms for one cobalt atom. One mole of this compound produces three mole ions in an aqueous solution. On reacting this solution with excess of 
solution, we get two moles of 
precipitate. The ionic formula for this complex would be
Text Solution

As the complex gives two moles of 
. with 
solution, so the complex must have two ionisable 
atoms. Hence the probable complex, which gives three mole ions may be 
one mole 
mole ions.
