A complex of cobalt with ammonia is analyzed for determining its formula, by titrating it against a strandarized acid as follows :
A 1.8 g complex required 20.00 mL 1.54 M HCl to reach the equivalence point. Also, if the reaction mixture at equivalence point is treated with excess of AgNO3 solution, 7.735 g of AgCl precipitate was produced. What is the formula of this complex?
[Given: atomic weight of CO = 59 gmol-1]
