To solve the problem for the complex \([Fe(en)_2Cl_2]Cl\), we will address each part step by step. ### Step 1: Determine the Oxidation Number of Iron 1. The overall charge of the complex \([Fe(en)_2Cl_2]^+\) is +1. 2. Ethylenediamine (en) is a neutral ligand, contributing 0 to the charge. 3. Each chloride ion (Cl) has a charge of -1. Since there are 2 chloride ions, their total contribution is -2. 4. Let the oxidation state of iron be \(x\). The equation can be set up as: \[ ...
