Question

write IUPAC name and calculate CN:[CO(NH2)2 (NH3)4] OC2H5​

Answer 1

Answer:

CN:[CO(NH2)2 (NH3)4] OC2H5

Answer 2

Coordination No. is 6

     

       Explanation:

• IUPAC name  $(Co(NH_{2})_{2} (NH_{3} )_{4} )OC_{2}H_{5}$ is Diamidotetraammine

        cobalt(III) ethoxide and Coordination number is 6

• In the coordination compound $NH_{2}$  name written as amido and $NH_{3}$ as ammine

• According to convention, naming start with amido and its no. is 2 so we use di and then ammine name comes it is in 4 so we use tetra and then metal name comes which is cobalt.

• Coordination number is the total no of coordinate bond formed in the coordination compound . In this compound four ammine and two amido are present  so coordination is six.
