Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 5

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The formula of hexamineplatinum (IV) chloride is \(\left[\mathrm{Pt}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_6\right] \mathrm{Cl}_4\).
\[
\left[\mathrm{Pt}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_6\right] \mathrm{Cl}_4 \longrightarrow\left[\mathrm{Pt}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_6\right]^{4+}+4 \mathrm{Cl}^{-}
\]
Thus, five ions are produced.
