Option B: In $[Fe (NH_{3})_{3} (CN)_{3}]$ , $NH_{3}$ and $CN^{-}$ satisfy both primary (oxidation state) and secondary (coordination number) valencies of $Fe^{3 +}$ (ferric ion). $NH_{3}$ is neutral, $CN^{-}$ is anionic.

Option D: In $[Cu (NH_{3})_{4}] SO_{4}$ , $NH_{3}$ ligands satisfy only the secondary valencies (coordination number) of $Cu^{2 +}$ (copper ion). $SO_{4}^{2 -}$ satisfies the primary valency.
