Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
$Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{6} Cl_{n}$ if magnetic mement is 3.83 BM then it contain three unpaired electrons. It means chromium in +3 oxidation state so molecular formula is $Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{6} Cl_{3}$
$\therefore\,$ This formula have following isomers
(a)$\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{6}\right]Cl_{3} :$ react with $AgNO_{3}$ but does not show geometrical isomerism.
(b) $\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{5} Cl\right]Cl_{2}. H_{2}O$ react with $AgNO_{3}$ but does not show geometrical isomerism.
(c) $\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{4} Cl_{2}\right]Cl.2H_{2}O$ react with $AgNO_{3} \&$ show geometrical isomerism.
(d) $\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{3}Cl_{3}\right]. 3H_{2}O$ does not react with $AgNO_{3} \&$ show geometrical isomerism.
$\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{4}Cl_{2}\right]Cl. 2H_{2}O$ react with $AgNO_{3} \&$ show geometrical isomerism and it's IUPAC nomenclature is Tetraaquadichlorido chromium (III) Chloride dihydrate.
$\therefore\,$ This formula have following isomers
(a)$\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{6}\right]Cl_{3} :$ react with $AgNO_{3}$ but does not show geometrical isomerism.
(b) $\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{5} Cl\right]Cl_{2}. H_{2}O$ react with $AgNO_{3}$ but does not show geometrical isomerism.
(c) $\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{4} Cl_{2}\right]Cl.2H_{2}O$ react with $AgNO_{3} \&$ show geometrical isomerism.
(d) $\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{3}Cl_{3}\right]. 3H_{2}O$ does not react with $AgNO_{3} \&$ show geometrical isomerism.
$\left[Cr\left(H_{2}O\right)_{4}Cl_{2}\right]Cl. 2H_{2}O$ react with $AgNO_{3} \&$ show geometrical isomerism and it's IUPAC nomenclature is Tetraaquadichlorido chromium (III) Chloride dihydrate.

Concepts Used:
Coordination Compounds
A coordination compound holds a central metal atom or ion surrounded by various oppositely charged ions or neutral molecules. These molecules or ions are re-bonded to the metal atom or ion by a coordinate bond.
Coordination entity:
A coordination entity composes of a central metal atom or ion bonded to a fixed number of ions or molecules.
Ligands:
A molecule, ion, or group which is bonded to the metal atom or ion in a complex or coordination compound by a coordinate bond is commonly called a ligand. It may be either neutral, positively, or negatively charged.
