Question 1. Write the systematic names of the following coordination compounds: (a) $Ni(CO)_4$, (b) $NaAuF_4$ , (c) $K_3[Fe(CN)_6]$, (d) $[Cr(en)_3]Cl_3$
(a) The CO ligands are neutral species and therefore the Ni atom bears no net charge. The compound is called tetracarbonylnickel(0)
(b) The complex anion has a negative charge $(AuF_4^-)$. The compound is sodium tetrafluoroaurate(III)
(c) The compound is potassium hexacyanoferrate(III)
(d) the compound is tris(ethylenediamine)chromium(III) chloride
