Answer»

The correct OPTION is (a) The first letter in the NAME of the ligand

For explanation I WOULD say: The listing of ligands in the formula of mononuclear coordination entities is ACCORDING to ALPHABETICAL order, including abbreviated ligands. It does not depend on the atomicity, denticity or the charge on the ligand.
