COMEDK · Chemistry · 24. Coordination Compounds

Which of the coordination compounds [(i) to (v)] are used for the following processes:
A: Electroplating
B: Removal of excess copper from human body
C: Estimation of hardness of water
(i) DMG (ii) \(\mathrm{Na}_2 \mathrm{EDTA}\) (iii) Cis- platin
(iv) D-penicillamine (v) \(\mathrm{K}\left[\mathrm{Au}(\mathrm{CN})_2\right]\)

  1. A \(\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{i} \quad \mathrm{B}=\mathrm{iii} \quad \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{iv}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{iv} \quad \mathrm{B}=\mathrm{i} \quad \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{iii}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{v} \quad \mathrm{B}=\mathrm{iv} \quad \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{ii}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{iii} \quad \mathrm{B}=\mathrm{ii} \quad \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{i}\)

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{A}=\mathrm{v} \quad \mathrm{B}=\mathrm{iv} \quad \mathrm{C}=\mathrm{ii}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The coordination compound \(\mathrm{K}[\mathrm{Au}(\mathrm{CN})_2]\) (v) is used in the electroplating of gold. Therefore, A = v. D-penicillamine (iv) is a chelating agent used to treat Wilson's disease, which involves the removal of excess copper from the human body. Therefore,…
