What is coordination number of central metal ion in [ Fe ( C ₂ O ₄ )₃ ]³⁻ ?

Options

Correct answer

D. 6

Step-by-step solution

In [ Fe ( C ₂ O ₄ )₃ ]³⁻ , three bidentate C ₂ O ₄²⁻ ligands, that is, total six donor atoms are attached to ferric ion ( Fe ³⁺ ) . Therefore, the coordination number of Fe ³⁺ ion in the complex is six.
