Identify homoleptic complex from following.

Identify homoleptic complex from following.

Options

  1. ABis(ethylenediamine)dithiocyanatoplatinum(IV)
  2. BTetraamminecopper(II) ion
  3. CTriamminetrinitrocobalt(III)
  4. DTriamminetrithiocyanatorhodium(III)

Correct answer

B. Tetraamminecopper(II) ion

Step-by-step solution

A homoleptic complex is a coordination compound in which the central metal atom or ion is bonded to only one type of ligand.

Bis(ethylenediamine)dithiocyanatoplatinum(IV) contains two types of ligands: ethylenediamine and thiocyanate. It is a heteroleptic complex.

Tetraamminecopper(II) ion contains only one type of ligand: ammine (NH_3).Itisahomolepticcomplex.<br><br>Triamminetrinitrocobalt(III)containstwotypesofligands:ammineandnitro.Itisaheterolepticcomplex.<br><br>Triamminetrithiocyanatorhodium(III)containstwotypesofligands:ammineandthiocyanate.Itisaheterolepticcomplex.<br><br>Answer:Tetraamminecopper(II)ion).
