The hypothetical complex chlorodiaquatriammine cobalt (III) chloride can be represented as:
  1. $\left[\mathrm{CoCl}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_3\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_2\right] \mathrm{Cl}_2$
  2. $\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_3\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right) \mathrm{Cl}_3\right]$
  3. $\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_2\right)_3\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_2 \mathrm{Cl}\right]$
  4. $\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_3\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_3 \mathrm{Cl}_3\right]$

Solution

The hypothetical complex chlorodiaquatriamminecobalt (III) chloride can be represented as $\left[\mathrm{CoCl}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_3\right.$ $\left.\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_2\right] \mathrm{Cl}_2$
