Question
What is the oxidation number of central atom in each of the following ?
(i) [Pt(NH3)6 Cl4 (ii) Fe4 [Fe(CN)6]3
(iii) [Ni(CO)4] (iv) Na[Hg(CN)3]
Solution
oxidation number of central atom is;-
(i) [Pt(NH3)6 Cl4= +4
(ii) Fe4 [Fe(CN)6]3 =+2
(iii) [Ni(CO)4] = 0
(iv) Na[Hg(CN)3] = +1.
(i) [Pt(NH3)6 Cl4= +4
(ii) Fe4 [Fe(CN)6]3 =+2
(iii) [Ni(CO)4] = 0
(iv) Na[Hg(CN)3] = +1.
