Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The name for the given coordination complex needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: A coordination complex is composed of two main parts; metal atom/ ion and ligand. Ligands are the atom/ group of atom/ ion that can donate its extra pair of electrons to the electron deficient metal cation. It leads to the formation of coordinate bond between metal ion and ligand.
(b)
