The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to evaluate the three statements provided: ### Step 1: Analyze Statement 1 **Statement 1:** `[M(en)Cl₂Br₂]` is an optically active complex. - The complex has a coordination number of 6, with one bidentate ligand (en) and two monodentate ligands (Cl and Br). - The presence of the bidentate ligand (en) allows for the formation of two distinct optical isomers (enantiomers) that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other. - Therefore, this statement is **True**. ### Step 2: Analyze Statement 2 **Statement 2:** en is a bidentate ligand. - Ethylenediamine (en) has the formula `NH₂CH₂CH₂NH₂`, which contains two nitrogen atoms, each capable of donating a lone pair of electrons to the metal center. - Since it can form two bonds with the metal, it is classified as a bidentate ligand. - Therefore, this statement is **True**. ### Step 3: Analyze Statement 3 **Statement 3:** In `K[Cu(CN)₂]`, the coordination number of Cu is 3. - In the complex `K[Cu(CN)₂]`, copper (Cu) is coordinated to two cyanide (CN) ligands. - The coordination number is defined as the number of ligand donor atoms bonded to the central metal atom. - Since there are only two CN ligands, the coordination number of Cu is 2, not 3. - Therefore, this statement is **False**. ### Conclusion Based on the evaluations: - Statement 1: True - Statement 2: True - Statement 3: False The correct option is **C: True, True, False**. ---
