A chemical performs the following reactions : (P) K_(2)[PtCl_(4)]+2NH_(3) to A+2KCl (Q) [Pt(NH_(3))_(4)](NO_(3)_(2)+2KCl to B+2NH_(3)+2KNO_(3) He finds that both A and B are white, crystalline compounds that give elemental analysis for empirical formula PtCl_(2)(NH_(3))_(2). However, A is most soluble in polar solvents, such as ethanol, while B is soluble in petroleum either and carbon tetrachloride. Which of the following statements is true for the complex A and B ?

Answer»

Both the COMPOUNDS react with silver oxalate to give white precipitate.
Only A reacts with silver oxalate to give white precipitate.
Only B reacts with silver oxalate to give white precipitate.
None of these react with silver oxalate.

Solution :`B to underset((trans))[PtCl_(2)(NH_(3))_(2)],`
`A to [PtCl_(2)(NH_(3))_(2)]("CIS"){"cis-platin is USED in anti cancer"}`.
