How  the oxidation  number   is +2 in both case  .   Is there i s  any rule to calculate.  Please describe  the answer.

Answer»

Here in first complex 4 neutral legend molecule is attached with central Pt2+ ion.  rendering total charge on the species as +2 whic is the oxidation state of Pt in this case.

Again in second complex 4 Cl - ions are acting as ligand attached with central Pt2+ ion making net charge of the complex species 2unit negative. Here also the oxidation state of Pt is +2.
