Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following are monodentate ligands?

Show answer

NH₃, Cl⁻, H₂O

Monodentate ligands have only one donor atom. NH₃ (N donor), Cl⁻ (Cl donor), and H₂O (O donor) are monodentate. En and oxalate are bidentate ligands.

2multiple choice

Ethylenediamine (en) is a:

Show answer

Bidentate ligand

Ethylenediamine (H₂N-CH₂-CH₂-NH₂) has two nitrogen atoms as donor atoms, making it a bidentate ligand.

3multiple choice

According to Crystal Field Theory, in an octahedral complex, d orbitals split into which sets?

Show answer

t₂g (3 orbitals) and eg (2 orbitals)

In octahedral complexes, the five d orbitals split into t₂g set (dxy, dyz, dxz - lower energy) and eg set (dx²-y², dz² - higher energy).

4multiple correct

Which of the following statements about coordination compounds are correct?

Show answer

Ligands are electron pair donors, Central metal ion is a Lewis acid, Counter ions are outside the coordination sphere

Ligands donate electron pairs (Lewis bases) to metal ions (Lewis acids). Counter ions balance charge outside coordination sphere. Coordination bonds are covalent, not ionic.
