(P) Ethane 1, 2 diamine | (1) Chelating agent |
(Q) | (2) Ambidentate |
(R) | (3) Flexidentate |
(S) | (4) Tridentate |
Options:
Answer:
B
Solution:
The correct option is (B).
P) Ethane-1,2-diamine is a didentate ligand that forms a ring structure with a metal ion, making it a (1) Chelating agent.
Q) SCN⁻ can coordinate through either the Sulfur or Nitrogen atom, identifying it as an (2) Ambidentate ligand.
R) CO₃²⁻ is a (3) Flexidentate ligand because it can act as either a monodentate or a didentate ligand depending on the complex.
S) NO₂⁻ is also an (2) Ambidentate ligand (matching the pattern in option B), as it can bind via Nitrogen or Oxygen.
