Question

The charge on the central metal ion in the complex [Ni(CO)4] is (A) +2 (B) +4 (C) 0 (D) +3

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Let in [Ni(C0)4], oxidation state (charge) of Ni is x. Ni(CO)4 x + (0 × 4) = 0 [∵ Oxidation state of CO= O] ∴ x=0 In metal carbonyl, oxidation state of metal is always zero.

Let in $[N i (C 0)_{4}]$ , oxidation state (charge) of Ni is x.
$N i (CO)_{4}$ $x + (0 \times 4) = 0 [∵$ Oxidation state of CO= O]
$∴$ x=0
In metal carbonyl, oxidation state of metal is always zero.
