1 mol of an octahedral metal complex with formula MCl3 . 2L on reaction with excess of AgNO3 gives 1 mol of AgCl. The denticity of Ligand L is ____________. (Integer answer)

Step-by-Step Verified Solution

MCl3 . 2L octahedral

MCl3.2L1mole⟶Ex.AgNO3 1 mole of AgCl

Its means that one Cl− ion present in ionization sphere.

∴ formula = [MCl2L2]Cl

For octahedral complex coordination no. is 6

∴ L act as bidentate ligand
