Which type of complex is Diamminedichloroplatinum(II)?

Which type of complex is Diamminedichloroplatinum(II)?

Options

  1. ACationic
  2. BAnionic
  3. CNeutral
  4. DChelate

Correct answer

C. Neutral

Step-by-step solution

The given complex is Diamminedichloroplatinum(II).

The chemical formula of the complex is [Pt(NH3)2Cl2][Pt(NH_3)_2Cl_2].

The oxidation state of platinum (Pt) is +2+2.

The ligands are two ammine (NH_3)molecules,whichareneutral,andtwochloride(Cl−) molecules, which are neutral, and two chloride (Cl^-) ions, which have a charge of −1-1 each.

Total charge on the complex sphere = +2+2(0)+2(−1)=0+2 + 2(0) + 2(-1) = 0.

Since the net charge on the coordination sphere is zero, it is a neutral complex.

Answer: Neutral
