Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The structure of the given coordination complex has to be drawn. The oxidation state, coordination number and the coordination geometry of the metal should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Coordination compounds are a special class of compounds in which the metal atoms or ions are bounded to a number of anions or neutral molecules.
A coordination compound can be simply represented as follows,
Oxidation number is the charge of the central atom of a coordination complex and it is represented by roman numerals.
Coordination number of a complex is defined as the number of ligand donor atoms to which the metal is directly bonded.
The geometry of a
Coordination number of complexes, shape with example are listed below,
