MCQ
${[{\rm{EDTA}}]^{4 - }}$ is a:
  • A
    Monodentate ligand
  • B
    Bidentate ligand
  • C
    Quadridentate 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.
