Formation of a complex species of Mⁿ⁺metal ion with ligands often .

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Formation of a complex species of Mⁿ⁺metal ion with ligands often results in all of the above effects. The original chemical properties of both the Mⁿ⁺ion and the ligands may be "masked" by the formation of the complex. The ease with which the Mⁿ⁺ion is reduced or oxidized may be altered due to its interaction with the ligands. The original physical properties of Mⁿ⁺ may also be changed by the complex formation. Additionally, the availability of the free Mⁿ⁺ions in solution may be reduced as they are now bound to the ligands in the complex.
