MCQ
${[{\rm{EDTA}}]^{4 - }}$ is a:
- AMonodentate ligand
- BBidentate ligand
- CQuadridentate ligand
- ✓Hexadentate ligand
✓
Answer
Correct option: D.
Hexadentate ligand
d
(d)Ethylenediamine tetraacetate ion $(EDTA)$
They have six donor atoms. poly dentate ligands have flexidentate character. It is not necessary that all the donor atoms present in the polydentate ligands should form co-ordinate bonds with central metal atom or ion.
