Question : 3
Total: 26
Write the co-ordination number and oxidation state of Platinum in the complex [ Pt ( en ) 2 Cl 2 ] .
Solution:
Co-ordination number = Denticity × Number of ligand = 2 × 2 + 2 × 1 = 6
Charge on complex= 0
Therefore,[ x + ( 0 × 2 ) + ( − 1 × 2 ) ] = 0
x = + 2
Oxidation state ofPt = + 2
Charge on complex
Therefore,
Oxidation state of
