It is a neutral ligand donating two electrons to the overall valence electron count of the molecule. Also known as triphenylphosphine; the phosphorous has three bonds to phenyl substituents as well as one bond to the main compound you are attaching it to, and a lone pair of electrons.

What type of bond will phosphorus make ionic or covalent?
Phosphorous will make a covalent bond, for example in the widely used neutral ligand, triphenyl phosphorous (PPh3).Some of the covalent complexes are charged, for example phosphate (PO4-3) however the phosphorous itself is covalently bound.
What is inner sphere mechanism?
such a mechanism in which a ligand can be transfers from one co-ordination sphere to other through a bridging ligand . a oxidant compound have such type of ligand .
Is EDTA hexadentate ligand or tetradentate?
It is hexadentate strong field ligand a polydentate ligand is also known as chelating agent because it forms chelate like structure around the central metallic ion.
Is cyanide in an ambident ligand?
no
Is H2O a ligand?

What type of ligand is nitrogen dioxide?
It is not a ligand because does not have a lone pair of electrons but nitrite NO2-1 is a strong basic or strong field ligand.

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 is ligand-dependent?
Requiring a ligand to serve its function
Amino acid like L-arginine is a bidentate ligand or tridentate ligand?
L-arginine is a bidentate ligand
What kind of ligand is oxalic acid?
generally a bidentate, dianionic ligand
The most important factor determining which type of receptor a signal molecule will bind to is?
the lipid solubility of the ligand.
What type of transport protein is a sodium potassium pump?
It is a carrier protein
Is sulphate a ligand in chemistry?
yes , it is a flexidentate ligand its denticity can be one or two
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.
Is EDTA hexadentate ligand or tetradentate?
It is hexadentate strong field ligand a polydentate ligand is also known as chelating agent because it forms chelate like structure around the central metallic ion.
