Complex Ions
Complex Ion•An ion formed when a positive central element binds with multiple ions
or polar molecules
Complex Ion•The central
element is almost always a positively
charged metal
Describe or define a
Complex Ion
Anion•Negatively charged ion
Cation
•Positively charged ion
Metal Ion Examples Cu+2 Cu+ Au+
Ag+ Zn+2 Ni+2
Pt+2 Co+2 Al+3
Ligands•The negative ions or polar molecules bound by the central element
in a complex ion
Ligand Examples
•Cl- F- H2O
•NH3 CN- Br-
•NO O2 OH-
Polydentate Ligands
• Ligands that can bind to more than
one point
Bidentate Ligands
•Ligands that can bind to two points in a complex ion
Bidentate Examples
H2N-CH2-CH2-NH2
-OOC-COO-
Tridentate Ligands
•Ligands that can bind to three points
in a complex ion
Tridentate Examples
H2-C-COO-
HO-C-COO-
H2-C-COO-
Chelates•Polydentate ligands
that bind to metal ions in solution
Coordination Number
•The number of points in which ligands bind to the central element
in a complex ion
Coordinate Covalent Bond•Covalent bonds in which both electrons involved are donated
by one atom
Drill:•Define:
–Complex ion
–Ligand
–Coordination number
Complex Ions•The bonds formed in a
complex ion are coordinate covalent
bonds
Coordination Complex
•A complex ion and its counter ion
Complex Ions•The bonds formed in a
complex ion are coordinate covalent
bonds
Complex Ion•Because of the type
bonding, they are sometimes called
coordinate complexes
