The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of identifying the number of non-classical ligands that are negatively charged from the given list, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Definitions - **Non-classical ligands**: These are ligands that can act as both sigma donors and pi acceptors due to the presence of empty orbitals that can interact with the metal's orbitals. - **Negative ligands**: These are ligands that carry a negative charge. ### Step 2: Analyze the Given Ligands We have the following ligands to consider: 1. \( CN^{\Theta} \) (Cyanide) 2. \( S_2O_3^{2-} \) (Thiosulfate) 3. \( C_3H_5^{\Theta} \) (Propyl) 4. \( C_5H_5^{\Theta} \) (Cyclopentadienyl) ### Step 3: Classify Each Ligand 1. **Cyanide (\( CN^{\Theta} \))**: This is a classical ligand. It primarily acts as a sigma donor and does not participate in pi bonding with metals. Therefore, it is not considered a non-classical ligand. 2. **Thiosulfate (\( S_2O_3^{2-} \))**: This ligand is negatively charged and can act as a non-classical ligand due to its ability to participate in pi bonding. 3. **Propyl (\( C_3H_5^{\Theta} \))**: This ligand is neutral and does not carry a negative charge, so it is not considered in our count. 4. **Cyclopentadienyl (\( C_5H_5^{\Theta} \))**: This ligand is also neutral and does not carry a negative charge, so it is not included in our count. ### Step 4: Count the Non-Classical Negative Ligands From our analysis: - The only non-classical ligand that is negatively charged is \( S_2O_3^{2-} \). ### Conclusion Thus, the total number of non-classical ligands that are negatively charged is **1**. ### Final Answer **1 non-classical ligand that is negatively charged.** ---
