Specify the oxidation numbers of the metals in the following coordination entities : (i) [Co(H_(2)O)(CN)(en)_(2)]^(2+) (ii) [PtCl_(4)]^(2-) (iii) [Cr(NH_(3))_(3)Cl_(3)] (iv) [CoBr_(2)(en)_(2)]^(+) (v) K_(3)[Fe(CN)_(6)]

Answer»

Solution :(i) x+(0)+(-1)+(0)=+2orx=+3 (ii) x-4=-2or x=+2 (III) x+0+3(-1)=0 or x=+3
(iv) x+2(-1)+0=+1 or x=+3 (V) `[Fe(CN)_(6)]^(3-)`, x+6(-1)=-3 or x=+3
