Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The names of the given coordination complexes are to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Coordination compounds are the compounds that are formed by the reaction of metal ions with polar molecules, or with a group of anions. They contain coordinate covalent bonds.
For each coordination compound, the name of the cation is first and the name of the anion is second.
The name of anionic ligand ends with letter “o”
The neutral ligands are called by the name of the molecule except
Prefixes di, tri, tetra, penta and hexa are used, to specify the number of ligands when two or more of same ligands are present.
The oxidation number of the metal is written after the name of the metal in roman numerals.
If the complex is an anion, its name ends with ‘-ate’.
