co-ordination compounds
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Coordination Sphere

The non-ionizable part of a complex compound which consists of central transition metal ion surrounded by neighbouring atoms or groups enclosed in square bracket.

The coordination centre, the ligands attached to the coordination centre, and the net charge of the chemical compound as a whole, form the coordination sphere when written together.

This coordination sphere is usually accompanied by a counter ion (the ionizable groups that attach to charged coordination complexes).

Example: [Co(NH3)6]C/3 – coordination sphere
