Question

The IUPAC name of the complex $[Pt(N{H}_3{)}_{2}Cl(N{H}_{2}C{H}_3)]Cl$ is :

• A. Diammine(methanamine)chlorido platinum(II)chloride
• B. Diamminechlorido(methanamine) platinum(II)chloride
• C. Diamminechlorido(aminomethane) platinum(II)chloride
• D. Bisammine(methanamine)chlorido platinum(II)chlorid e

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$\left[Pt{\left(N{H}_3\right)}_{2}Cl\left(N{H}_{2}C{H}_3\right)\right]Cl$
Oxidation state of $Pt$ is $X$.
$x+2(0)+1(-1)+1\times (0)=+1$
$x-1=+1$
$x=+1+1$
$x=2$
Oxidation state Platinum is II
Name: Diamminechlorido (methanamine)platinum(II) chloride
