Vedclass · Answer

(C) An ambidentate ligand is a ligand that can coordinate to a central metal atom through two different donor atoms.$CN^{-}$ can coordinate through $C$ or $N$.$SCN^{-}$ can coordinate through $S$ or $N$.$NO_2^{-}$ can coordinate through $N$ or $O$.$SO_4^{2-}$ is a bidentate ligand that coordinates through two oxygen atoms simultaneously,but it does not have two different donor atoms to act as an ambidentate ligand.Therefore,$SO_4^{2-}$ is not an ambidentate ligand.

Which one of the following is not an ambidentate ligand?
