About the coordination covalent bond

Select one:

1- the cationic metal involved in the coordination covalent bond is known as electron donar while the ligand is known as electron deficient

2- the coordination covalent bond is represented through an arrow originated from the metal orbital donar and a head pointing toward the electron donating group

3- it is involved in the complexation process through which a cationic atom (mostly of transient metals) provides electron pair a while a negatively charged species or those of unshared pair of electrons provides vacnt orbital to the bond

4- some cationic species can also form coordination covalent bond as in case of ammonium ion NH₄⁺ and hydronium ion H₃O⁺ or neural molecule like iodine in KI₃^-
