Coordination Compounds 1 Question 21
Passage
The coordination number of $\mathrm{Ni}^{2+}$ is $4$ .
$ \mathrm{NiCl}_2+\mathrm{KCN} \text { (excess) } \longrightarrow A \text { (cyano complex) } $
$ \mathrm{NiCl}_2+\text { conc. } \mathrm{HCl} \text { (excess) } \longrightarrow B \text { (chloro complex) } $
21. The IUPAC name of $A$ and $B$ are
(2006,34 M=12 M)
(a) potassium tetracyanonickelate (II), potassium tetrachloronickelate (II)
(b) tetracyanopotassiumnickelate (II), tetrachloropotassiumnickelate (II)
(c) tetracyanonickel (II), tetrachloronickel (II)
(d) potassium tetracyanonickel (II), potassium tetrachloronickel (II)
