Question

(3) In an tetrahedral complex, how many ligands are present?
(a) 5
(b) 6
o four
four (d) &​

Answer 1

Answer:

4

Explanation:

When two or more types of ligands are coordinated to an octahedral metal center, the complex can exist as isomers. The number of possible isomers can reach 30 for an octahedral complex with six different ligands (in contrast, only two stereoisomers are possible for a tetrahedral complex with four different ligands).
