Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) (B), (C), (A), (D)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For (A) PdCl2.4NH3: 1:2 electrolyte, secondary valency 4 \(\implies [Pd(NH_3)_4]Cl_2\). Mol of AgCl = 2. For (B) NiCl4.2K: 2:1 electrolyte, secondary valency 4 \(\implies K_2[NiCl_4]\). Mol of AgCl = 0. For (C) CoCl3.4NH3: 1:1 electrolyte, secondary valency 6…
