NCERT · Class 12 · Chemistry · Coordination CompoundsWhich of the following is an example of a double salt rather than a coordination compound?
Double salts dissociate completely into simple ions when dissolved in water, losing their identity in solution, whereas coordination complexes retain their identity. Mohr's salt [FeSO4.(NH4)2SO4.6H2O] is a classic example of a double salt that dissociates into Fe2+, NH4+, and SO42- ions in aqueous solution.
