A

\ce[Al(H2O)4(OH)2]+\ce{[Al \, (H_2O)_4 (OH)_2]^{+}}

B

\ce[Al(H2O)3(OH)3]\ce{[Al (H_2O)_3 (OH)_3]}

C

\ce[Al(H2O)2(OH)4]\ce{[Al (H_2O)_2 (OH)_4]^{-}}

D

[Al(H2O)6](OH)3]{[Al (H_2O)_6] (OH)_3]}

Answer

\ce[Al(H2O)2(OH)4]\ce{[Al (H_2O)_2 (OH)_4]^{-}}

Explanation

Solution

Dissolution of Al(OH)3Al ( OH )_{3} by a solution of NaOHNaOH produces a complex compound shown as below: Al(OH)3+NaOH[Al(H2O)2(OH)4]Al ( OH )_{3}+ NaOH \longrightarrow\left[ Al \left( H _{2} O \right)_{2}( OH )_{4}\right]-
