    An excess of \[\text{AgN}{{\text{O}}_{3}}\] is added to 100 mL of a 0.01 M solution of Dichlorotetraaquachromium\[\text{(III)}\]chloride. The number of moles of \[\text{AgCl}\] precipitate would be

    A)  0.001             

    B)  0.002

    C)  0.003             

    D)  0.01

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    The formula of dichlorotetraqua chromium (III), chloride is \[[Cr{{({{H}_{2}}O)}_{4}}C{{l}_{2}}]Cl.\]On ionisation it generates only one \[C{{l}^{-}}\] ion. \[\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  Initial \\  mmol  \\  After\,ionisation \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{[Cr{{({{H}_{2}}O)}_{4}}}}\,\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  100\times 0.01 \\  =1mmol  \\  0 \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C{{l}_{2}}]Cl}}\,\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  0 \\    \\  1mmol \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{[Cr{{({{H}_{2}}O)}_{4}}}}\,C{{l}_{2}}]\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  0 \\    \\  1mmol \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{^{+}+C{{l}^{-}}}}\,\]One mole of \[C{{l}^{-}}\] ions react with only 1 mole of \[AgN{{O}_{3}}\] molecule to produce 1 mole of \[AgCl\]. \[\therefore \]1 mmol or \[1\times {{10}^{-3}}\] mole reacts with \[AgN{{O}_{3}}\] to give \[AgCl\] \[=\frac{1\times 1\times {{10}^{-3}}}{1}={{10}^{-3}}or\,0.001\,mol\,AgCl\]
