1.
Explain the oxidation state of a metal in a complex.
Answer»
The oxidation state of a metal atom or ion in the complex is the apparent charge carried by it in the complex.
It depends upon the atomic number and electronic configuration of the metal atom or ion.
The coordination number, the formula and geometry of a complex depend upon the oxidation state of the metal atom or ion.
