उत्तर
The coordination complex is [Fe(C2O4)3]3− Potassium ions K+ are counter ions and do not affect coordination number. C2O42− is oxalate, a bidentate ligand and each oxalate ion donates two electron pairs to the metal center.
There are 3 oxalate ligands
3 ligand is bidentate → donates 2 donor atoms
Coordination number of Fe
= 3 ligands × 2
= 6
