The secondary valency of platinum in tetra amminedichloroplatinum (IV) chloride is
- A \(+2\)
- B 3
- C 6
- D \(+4\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 6
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Secondary valency corresponds to the coordination number. The formula of the given complex is \(\left[\mathrm{Pt} \mathrm{Cl}_{2}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}\right)_{4}\right] \mathrm{Cl}_{2}\).
In it coordination number of \(\mathrm{Pt}=2+4=6\)
\(\therefore\) Secondary valency of Pt \(=6\).
In it coordination number of \(\mathrm{Pt}=2+4=6\)
\(\therefore\) Secondary valency of Pt \(=6\).
