For the reaction given below :

CoCl₃ . xNH₃ + AgNO₃ (aq) $\to$

If two equivalents of AgCl precipitate out, then the value of x will be _____________.

Accepted Answer

\begin{aligned}&amp;\mathrm{CoCl}_3 \cdot \mathrm{xNH}_3+\mathrm{AgNO}_3 \rightarrow \underset{\text{2 mol}}{\mathrm{AgCl} \downarrow}\\\\&amp;\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_5 \mathrm{Cl}\right] \mathrm{Cl}_2+\mathrm{AgNO}_3 \rightarrow \underset{\text{2 mol}}{\mathrm{AgCl}} \downarrow\\\\&amp;x=5\end{aligned}
