Are ligands complex ions?
A ligand is only a part of a metal complex.
Why only transition elements are known to form pi-complexes?
Bonding in π-complexes is strongest when both the filled π-bonding orbital of the π-bonded ligand donates TO the metal and the empty π* orbital on the ligand can accept electron density FROM the metal. A metal with a partially-filled set of d orbitals is able to participate in this synergistic mode of bonding; main group atoms virtually never have filled pπ orbitals available for donating electron density to π-complexed ligand, hence this kind of complex occurs only with transition metals.
Define complex ion and give two examples?
A complex ion is an ion that contains a metal cation binded to one or more small molecules or ions.
Give the example of diamagnetic transition metal hydride complex?
zinc eh?
What is a backbonding ligand?
A backbonding ligand is a ligand - an ion, molecule or functional group bound to another chemical entity - which has two or more bonds to the same metal centre.
Are ligands complex ions?
A ligand is only a part of a metal complex.
What is the difference between a complex and organometallic?
The main difference between a complex and organometallic is the bonding. in complex there is a bond between a ligand and a metal and in organometallic is the bond is between Carbon and transition metal. A Ali Sudais jan Research Scholar Nuclear medicine Inorganic Chemistry
Why CoCl4 -2 shows blue colour?
1. metal to ligand charge transfer transition 2. ligand to metal charge transfer transition 3. spin allowed and Laporte forbidden d-d transition 4. spin allowed and Laporte allowed d-d transition

What is the difference between chelating agent and ligand?
A ligand is an ion or molecule that binds to a central metal atom to form a coordination complex. The bonding usually involves the formal donation of one or more of the ligand's electron pairs. A chelating agent is a type of ligand.
What causes the colour of complex ions?
Transition metal ions
Give the example of diamagnetic transition metal hydride complex?
zinc eh?
Is rhodium a transition metal or a alkali?
Transition metal
What is the advantage of slope ratio method in determining moie ratio between metal and ligand?
determination of metal to ligand ratio by slope ratio method
What is the metal carbonyl?
A metal attached to Carbonyl(-CO) ligand(s)
