Chemistry - Coordination Chemistry Question with Solution | TestHub
Consider the following:-
(1) Hardness of water ⇒ Estimated by EDTA
(2) Chlorophyll ⇒ Contain complex of Magnesium
(3) Hemoglobin ⇒ Contain coordination compound of iron
(4) Vitamin Contain coordination compound of cobalt
(5) Lead poisoning ⇒ Treated by EDTA
(6) Inhibit the growth of Tumors ⇒ Coordination compound of platinum is used
(7) Coinage metals ⇒ Belongs to elements of group-11 of long form of modern periodic table
(8) with Basis of the Ziegler catalysts
(9) Bordeaux mixture
Answer:
Solution:
Statements (1) to (4): EDTA estimates water hardness, while chlorophyll, hemoglobin, and Vitamin B₁₂ are well-known coordination complexes of Mg, Fe, and Co respectively.
Statements (5) & (6): Calcium-EDTA chelate is used to treat lead poisoning, and cisplatin (a platinum complex) inhibits tumor growth.
Statements (7) to (9): Coinage metals (Cu, Ag, Au) belong to Group 11, TiCl₄ + Al(CH₃)₃ forms a Ziegler catalyst, and Bordeaux mixture consists of CuSO₄ + Ca(OH)₂.
Conclusion: All nine statements are factually correct, making the number of incorrect matches 0.
