The correct Answer is:
To determine the number of non-classical ligands from the given options (CO, NO, C2H4, C3H5, and H), we will analyze each ligand based on the definition of non-classical ligands. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Non-Classical Ligands**: - Non-classical ligands, also known as π-acidic ligands, can donate sigma (σ) electrons and accept pi (π) electrons. They have empty orbitals of suitable symmetry and energy that can interact with the d-orbitals of the central metal atom. 2. **Analyzing Each Ligand**: - **CO (Carbon monoxide)**: - CO is a well-known non-classical ligand. It donates a pair of electrons (σ donation) from the carbon atom and can accept π electrons due to its empty π* orbitals. - **Conclusion**: CO is a non-classical ligand. - **NO (Nitric oxide)**: - NO can act as a non-classical ligand as it has a lone pair of electrons that can be donated (σ donation) and can also accept π electrons due to its empty π* orbitals. - **Conclusion**: NO is a non-classical ligand. - **C2H4 (Ethylene)**: - C2H4 can act as a non-classical ligand because it has a π bond that can donate electrons and can also accept π electrons from the metal center. - **Conclusion**: C2H4 is a non-classical ligand. - **C3H5 (Propene)**: - C3H5 can also act as a non-classical ligand. It has a π bond that can participate in π-backbonding with the metal, allowing it to accept π electrons while donating σ electrons. - **Conclusion**: C3H5 is a non-classical ligand. - **H (Hydrogen)**: - Hydrogen does not have the ability to donate π electrons or accept them. It can only donate a single σ electron. - **Conclusion**: H is not a non-classical ligand. 3. **Counting Non-Classical Ligands**: - From the analysis, we have identified CO, NO, C2H4, and C3H5 as non-classical ligands. H is not included. - Therefore, the total number of non-classical ligands is 4. ### Final Answer: The number of non-classical ligands is **4**. ---
