1 mol of an octahedral metal complex with formula MCl3·2 L on reaction with excess of AgNO3 gives 1 mol of AgCl. The denticity of Ligand L is___________ (Integer answer)

Solution

As 1 mole complex give 1 mole mole AgCl precipitate. So only one Cl ion is in ionisation sphere.

As complex is octahedral so denticity of Ligand L is =2.
