Question

Match the LIST-I with LIST-II

• A. A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
• B. A-I, B-III, C-II, D-IV
• C. A-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
• D. A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I

Hint:

EDTA is hexadentate while Pyridine is monodentate ligand.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
Denticity is the number of donor atoms through which a ligand attaches to central metal ion.
Step 1:
Pyridine donates through one nitrogen atom. \[ A \rightarrow IV \]
Step 2:
DMG acts as bidentate ligand. \[ B \rightarrow III \]
Step 3:
EDTA is hexadentate ligand. \[ C \rightarrow II \] Dien is tridentate ligand. \[ D \rightarrow I \]
Step 4:
Final matching: \[ A-IV,\quad B-III,\quad C-II,\quad D-I \] \[ \boxed{\text{Correct Option = (3)}} \]
