Vedclass · Answer

(B) The coordination number is defined as the total number of ligand donor atoms directly bonded to the central metal ion.In the complex $[Fe(CN)_6]^{4-}$,there are $6$ $CN^-$ ligands,so the coordination number is $6$.In the complex $[Fe(CN)_6]^{3-}$,there are $6$ $CN^-$ ligands,so the coordination number is $6$.In the complex $[FeCl_4]^{-}$,there are $4$ $Cl^-$ ligands,so the coordination number is $4$.Therefore,the coordination numbers are $6, 6, 4$ respectively.

Coordination number of $Fe$ in the complexes $[Fe(CN)_6]^{4-}$,$[Fe(CN)_6]^{3-}$ and $[FeCl_4]^{-}$ would be respectively
