Answer:
+2
Explanation:
Here, there is no charge on the complex
That means the complex is a neutral complex
Oxidation number of the complex is '0'
Now,
Seeing the complex numbers of ligands in the complex
NH₃ = 0
H₂O = 0
Cl = -1
Now equating the oxidation numbers,
Before that, let us assume Oxidation number of 'Pt' be x
x + 0 + 0 + 2(-1) = 0
x - 2 = 0
x = +2
That means oxidation number of Pt is +2
