    Ammonia is a Lewis base and it forms complexes with many cations. Which one of the following cations does not form a complex with ammonia?

    A) \[A{{g}^{+}}\]                                   

    B)  \[C{{u}^{2+}}\]

    C)  \[C{{d}^{2+}}\]                                

    D)  \[P{{b}^{2+}}\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

                     Ammonia is a Lewis base. It forms complexes with transition elements like\[A{{g}^{+}},C{{u}^{2+}}\]and\[C{{d}^{2+}}\]while it does not form complex with\[P{{b}^{2+}}\]because Pb is not a transition element. \[AgCl+2N{{H}_{4}}OH\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}[Ag{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{2}}]Cl+2{{H}_{2}}O\] \[CuS{{O}_{4}}+4N{{H}_{4}}OH\to [Cu{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{4}}]S{{O}_{4}}+4{{H}_{2}}O\] \[CdS{{O}_{4}}+4N{{H}_{4}}OH\to [Cu{{(N{{H}_{3}})}_{4}}]S{{O}_{4}}+4{{H}_{2}}O\]
