(C) Ambidentate ligands are those which possess two different donor atoms but can coordinate to the central metal atom through only one of them at a time.In the given list:$1$. $NO_2^{-}$ (can coordinate through $N$ or $O$)$2$. $SCN^{-}$ (can coordinate through $S$ or $N$)$3$. $CN^{-}$ (can coordinate through $C$ or $N$)Other ligands like $C_2O_4^{2-}$,$NH_3$,$SO_4^{2-}$,and $H_2O$ are not ambidentate.Therefore,the total number of ambidentate ligands is $3$.

Number of ambidentate ligands among the following is ................ $NO_2^{-}$,$SCN^{-}$,$C_2O_4^{2-}$,$NH_3$,$CN^{-}$,$SO_4^{2-}$,$H_2O$.
