Accepted Answer

$[C o (N H_{3}]_{4} C l_{2}] C l + 2 e n \to [C o (e n)_{2} C l_{2}] + 4 N H_{3}$

NH₃ is the neutral monodentate ligand. Ethylene diamine is a neutral didentate ligand.

$H_{2} \overset{∙ ∙}{N} - C H_{2} - C H_{2} - \overset{∙ ∙}{N} H_{2} (e n)$

So, two ethylene diamine are equivalent to four 'NH₃' ligand.
