Q3. Which of the following is a bidentate ligand?
A bidentate ligand is a ligand that can form two coordinate bonds with a central metal ion.

  • A. H2_2O (water) is a monodentate ligand.
  • B. NH3_3 (ammine) is a monodentate ligand.
  • C. en (ethylenediamine) is a bidentate ligand, as it has two nitrogen atoms that can each donate a lone pair.
  • D. Cl−^- (chloro) is a monodentate ligand.
  • E. CN−^- (cyano) is a monodentate ligand. The correct option is C. en (ethylenediamine).

Q8. Study the coordination compound below.
The compound is K4[Fe(CN)6]\text{K}_4[\text{Fe}(\text{CN})_6].

Part b· 1 step

Identify the central metal ion.

  1. Locate the element in the center of the complex ion.

    The central metal ion is the atom to which the ligands are bonded, typically found immediately after the counter ion in the formula.

    • Central metal ion: Fe (Iron)

Part c· 1 step

Identify the ligand.

  1. Locate the species directly bonded to the central metal ion within the brackets.

    The ligands are the molecules or ions surrounding the central metal ion.

    • Ligand: CN−^- (Cyanide)
