The oxidation state of tungsten in its oxocomplex [ $W_{2} O_{6} (C_{2} H_{4})_{2} (H_{2} O)_{2}]^{2 -}$ is

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

Let the oxidation state of W be $x$ . Oxo O is -2; $C_{2} H_{4}$ and $H_{2} O$ are neutral ligands. 2x + 6(-2) = -2 $\Rightarrow$ 2x = +10 $\Rightarrow$ $x$ = +5. Hence (b).
