For

Number of rings form = x

number of atoms in a ring (including C, N & Metal only) = y

then find x + y =?

Answer:
8.00
Solution:

The ligand 'trien' (triethylenetetramine) is a tetradentate ligand. It forms three five-membered chelate rings with the central Pt²⁺ ion. Thus, x = 3. Each ring contains 5 atoms (Pt, 2 N, 2 C). Thus, y = 5. Therefore, x + y = 3 + 5 = 8.
