complexing agents are ligands that are capable forming complexes with metal ions by the formation of coordinate bond
Because alkali metal is weak oxidizing agent. complexing agent is related with reduction.
caco3
caco3
it has a LONE pair of electrons that is sterically unhindered
The purpose is for the agent to "bind to a metal strongly enough to prevent metal hydroxide from precipitating, but weakly enough to give up the metal when EDTA is added." -Quantitative Chemical Analysis, 8th edition, Daniel C. Harris

A chelating agent (also known as a complexing or sequestering agent) is a compound that forms stable complexes with metal ions. Control of metal ion activity in aqueous systems is the main use of chelating properties so precipitation of sparingly soluble salts such as those of of calcium and magnesium with inorganic anions, fatty acids and anionic surfactants can be avoided. Typical applications are scale control and water softening.
Resorcinol is used as the complexing agent to provide the color reaction, although the exact nature of the colored product is not known. Since resorcinol favors electrophilic aromatic substitution, the reaction may be similar to the Molisch Test.
They ease with which they donate their outermost electrons which makes them good reducing agents
The complexing "agent" changes the level of ionisation of the stannic halide. This makes it less likely to react with another ionic compound. The stannic halide itself also alters the pull/push of radicals (in this case P) attached to the carbon rings (Ph) in the complex as well.
Physical change is a change in the structure. Chemical change is a change in the composition. Melting is a physical change. Complexing is a chemical change.
