Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following coordination compounds is known for its ability to form stable complexes with transition metals?
  • Step 1: Understand what a coordination compound is. It is a complex formed between a metal and ligands.
  • Step 2: Identify what a ligand is. A ligand is a molecule that can donate a pair of electrons to a metal.
  • Step 3: Learn about bidentate ligands. These are ligands that can attach to a metal at two different points.
  • Step 4: Recognize ethylenediamine as an example of a bidentate ligand. It has two sites that can bond with a metal.
  • Step 5: Understand that stable complexes are formed when ligands like ethylenediamine bind strongly to transition metals.
