Which statement is incorrect about CO ligand? Select one: O a. CO ligands can adopt terminal, u2 and u, bonding modes, the amount of back donation depends on bonding mode. O b. A CO ligand can accept electrons into its n* MO; this weakens the C-O bond O c. In the IR spectrum of Fe(CO), absorptions assigned to the CO stretching modes are at higher wavenumber than that of free CO. O d. None of the above

Coordination Chemistry

It is a part of chemistry, in which the study of compounds that have central atoms surrounded by molecules or ions, known as ligand, is known as coordination chemistry.
