Which of following coordinate complexes is an exception to EAN rule?
(Given Atomic number Pt = 78, Fe = 26, Zn = 30, Cu = 29)

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

As in[Cu(H2O)4]2+EAN is 35, so it does not follow EAN rule.
EAN=Atomic number of central atom + Number of electrons donated by ligands – oxidation state of central atom.
(A)[Pt(NH3)6]4+EAN=78+2×6-4=86
(B)[Fe(CN)6]4-EAN=26+1×6+4=36
(C)[Zn(NH3)4]2+EAN=30+2×4-2=36
(D)[Cu(H2O)4]2+EAN=29+2×4-2=35
