MCQ
$IUPAC$ name of $[Pt (NH_3)_2 Cl(NO_2)]$ is 
  • Platinum diaminechloronitrite
  • B
    Chloronitrito $-N-$ ammineplatinum $(II)$
  • C
    Diamminechloridonitrito $-N-$ platinum $(II)$
  • D
    Diamminechloronitrito $-N-$ platinate $(II)$

Answer

Correct option: A.
Platinum diaminechloronitrite
a
$NH _3$ is neutral, making the first complex positively charged overall.

$Cl$ has a $-1$ charge, making the second complex the anion and so platinum ends with -ate.

Therefore, the complex with $NH _3$ comes first, followed by the one with $Cl$.

Option $(A)$ is correct. The $I.U.P.A.C$ name for $\left[ Pt \left( NH _3\right)_4\right]\left[ PtCl _4\right]$

is $tetraammineplatinum(II)$ $tetrachloridoplatinate(II)$
