Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
Correct Answer: 4
Solution and Explanation
The correct answer is 4
Ambidentate ligand means two ligand site,
so ambidentate ligand is SCN-
SCN– is an ambidentate ligand S & N both are donor atom.

Concepts Used:
Coordination Compounds
A coordination compound holds a central metal atom or ion surrounded by various oppositely charged ions or neutral molecules. These molecules or ions are re-bonded to the metal atom or ion by a coordinate bond.
Coordination entity:
A coordination entity composes of a central metal atom or ion bonded to a fixed number of ions or molecules.
Ligands:
A molecule, ion, or group which is bonded to the metal atom or ion in a complex or coordination compound by a coordinate bond is commonly called a ligand. It may be either neutral, positively, or negatively charged.
