Mohr's salt is a:
Correct answer: D. Double salt.
- A. Simple salt.
- B. Complex salt.
- C. Complex ion.
- D. Double salt.
Explanation
The union of two or more molecules of simple salts, when combined through electrostatic forces of attraction, combine with each other without losing their chemical identity. Generally combined by simple physical methods, the resulting products are known as double salts; e.g., carnallite (KCl.MgCl2.6H2O), chrome alum (Cr2(SO4)3.K2SO4.12H2O), Mohr's salt (FeSO4.(NH4)2.6H2O), etc.

About Transition Elements
Transition elements are identified by their partially filled d subshells in atoms or common ions. The topic covers the electronic structure of d-block elements, including the filling order of 4s and 3d orbitals, variable oxidation states and the distinction between transition elements and elements with completely filled d subshells.

Which has a complex anion?
A coordination complex compound of cobalt has a molecular formula containing five ammonia molecules, one nitro group, and two chlorine atoms for one cobalt atom. One mole of this compound produces three-mole ions in an aqueous solution. By the reaction of this solution with excess silver nitrate solution, two molecules of AgCl get precipitated. The ionic formula of this compound would be:
