The correct Answer is:
To find the sum of the denticity of the given ligands, we will analyze each ligand one by one, determine their denticity, and then sum them up. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Glycinate Ion**: - Structure: CH2NH2COO⁻ - Denticity: The glycinate ion can donate electrons through one nitrogen atom and one oxygen atom. - **Denticity = 2** 2. **Oxalate Ion**: - Structure: COO⁻ - COO⁻ - Denticity: The oxalate ion can donate electrons through two oxygen atoms. - **Denticity = 2** 3. **o-Phenanthroline**: - Structure: Contains two nitrogen atoms in a fused ring system. - Denticity: It can donate electrons through both nitrogen atoms. - **Denticity = 2** 4. **2,2-Bipyridyl**: - Structure: Two pyridine rings connected by a single bond, each containing a nitrogen atom. - Denticity: It can donate electrons through both nitrogen atoms. - **Denticity = 2** 5. **Diethylenetriamine**: - Structure: NH2CH2CH2NHCH2CH2NH2 - Denticity: It has three nitrogen atoms available for donation. - **Denticity = 3** 6. **Ethylene Diamine**: - Structure: NH2CH2CH2NH2 - Denticity: It can donate electrons through two nitrogen atoms. - **Denticity = 2** ### Summing the Denticities: - Glycinate Ion: 2 - Oxalate Ion: 2 - o-Phenanthroline: 2 - 2,2-Bipyridyl: 2 - Diethylenetriamine: 3 - Ethylene Diamine: 2 **Total Denticity = 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 2 = 13** ### Final Answer: The sum of the denticity of the given ligands is **13**. ---
