Answer» Correct Answer - A::B::C Molecular formula of ethane-1, 2-diamine is `{:(CH_(2)- overset(..)(N)H_(2)),("|"),(CH_(2)-overset(..)(N)H_(2)):}` (a) Ethane-1, 2-diamine is a neutral ligand due to absence of any charge. (b) It is a didentate ligand due to presence of two donor sites one at each nitrogen atom of amino group. (c) It is a chelating, ligand due to its ability to chelate with the metal. Hence, options (a), (b) and (c) are correct choices. |
