Vedclass · Answer

(D) Ligands are species that donate a pair of electrons to the central metal atom or ion to form a coordinate bond. Common donor atoms in ligands include electronegative atoms with lone pairs of electrons,such as $N$,$O$,$P$,$S$,and $X$ (halogens). Since both nitrogen $(N)$ and oxygen $(O)$ are common donor atoms found in many ligands (e.g.,$NH_3$,$H_2O$,$OH^-$),the correct option is $(d)$.

Which of the following is a common donor atom in ligands?
