Given (i) $\mathrm{Zn + 4NH_3 \rightarrow Zn(NH_3)_4^{2+} + 2e}$,
$E^{o} = 1.03\ \mathrm{V}$
(ii) $\mathrm{Zn \rightarrow Zn^{+2} + 2e}$,
$E^{0} = 0.763\ \mathrm{V}$
the formation constant of the complex $\mathrm{Zn(NH_3)_4^{2+}}$ is approximately
(a)$1 \times 10^{5}$
(b)$1 \times 10^{7}$
(c)$1 \times 10^{9}$
(d)$1 \times 10^{12}$
