Hey !!
Homoleptic complexes :- Complexes in which the metal ion is linked to only one type of ligands are called homoleptic complexes
Example :- [Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺
Heteroleptic complexes :- The complexes in which the metal atom or ion is linked to more than one kind of ligands are called heteroleptic complexes
Example :- [Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂]⁺
GOOD LUCK !!
