Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The amount of $AgCl$ precipitated out when 1 mole of given complex reacts with excess of silver nitrate has to be determined.

Concept introduction: The transition metal atoms have tendency to form complex compounds that are linked to the certain neutral or ionic species which leads to the formation of coordination compounds.

Isomerism: Isomers are compounds with same molecular formula with different arrangements of atoms.

• Structural isomers: Have same molecular formula but different bonding arrangements of atoms. It is classified into coordination isomer (occurs by exchanging a coordinated ligand and the counter-ions) and linkage isomers (ligand attached through different atoms to the metal).
• Stereoisomers: differ in their spatial arrangement of atoms.

Balanced chemical equation: The chemical reaction is considered as balanced if all the type and the number of atoms present in reactant side of the chemical reaction equals to the type and the number of atoms present in the product side of the reaction.
