JEE Mains · Chemistry · STD 12 - 5. Co-ordination chemistry

Given below are two statements : Statement \(I :\) The identification of \(Ni ^{2+}\) is carried out by dimethyl glyoxime in the presence of \(NH _{4} OH\). Statement \(II :\) The dimethyl glyoxime is a bidentate neutral ligand. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

  1. A Statement \(I\) is false but Statement \(II\) is true.
  2. B Both Statement \(I\) and Statement \(II\) are false.
  3. C Statement \(I\) is true but Statement \(II\) is false.
  4. D Both Statement \(I\) and Statement \(II\) are true.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) Statement \(I\) is true but Statement \(II\) is false.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Neutral dimethyl glyoxime does not act as ligand. When \(Ni ^{2+}\) reacts with dimethyl glyoxime in presence of \(NH _{4} OH\), it produce dimethyl glyoximate then it form rozy red ppt. \(Ni ^{2+}{ }_{( aq )}+2 dmg ^{-} \rightarrow\left[ Ni ( dmg )_{2}\right]\)…
