Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) Ethylenediamine (en) (i) Monodentate ligand (b) Chlorido (Cl) (ii) Bidentate ligand (c) Ferrate (Fe) (iii) Complex anion (d) Ammonia (NH3) (iv) Neutral ligand

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv

B

a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv

C

a-i, b-ii, c-iv, d-iii

D

a-ii, b-iv, c-iii, d-i

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

Ethylenediamine (en) is a bidentate ligand because it can donate two pairs of electrons to a metal ion. Chlorido (Cl) is a monodentate ligand as it donates one pair of electrons. Ferrate refers to a complex anion containing iron, while ammonia (NH3) is a neutral ligand as it does not carry any charge.
