Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which of the given ligands are chelating ligands, we need to understand the definition of chelating ligands. Chelating ligands are polydentate ligands that can bind to a central metal atom at multiple points, forming a ring structure. Let's analyze each of the given ligands step by step: 1. **H₂O (Water)**: - Water has one donor atom (oxygen) that can coordinate to a metal ion. - Since it can only donate one pair of electrons, it is classified as a **monodentate ligand**. - **Conclusion**: Not a chelating ligand. ...
