The IUPAC name of the complex - [Ag ( H _ 2 O) _ 2 ][Ag (CN) _ 2 ] is

Correct answer: C. diaquasilver(I) dicyanidoargentate(I) The correct IUPAC name of the complex [Ag ( H _ 2 O) _ 2 ][Ag (CN) _ 2 ] is diaquasilver(I) dicyanidoargentate(I) Here both Ag atoms are in +1 oxidation state. water is neutral ligand and cynide is negative ligand. Hence option 3 is correct.
