Find the total number of colored species out of the following:

Cl₂, NO₂, NH₃, AgNO₂, CrO₂Cl₂, N₂O₄, Cu₂[Fe(CN)₆]

Answer:
5
Solution:

Color depends on the absorption of visible light by the species.

Cl₂ (greenish yellow), NO₂ (brown), AgNO₂ (yellow), CrO₂Cl₂ (deep red), and Cu₂[Fe(CN)₆] (reddish brown) are colored species.

NH₃ and N₂O₄ are colorless.

Therefore, the total number of colored species = 5.
