Vedclass · Answer

(A) The chemical formula for sodium nitroprusside is $Na_2[Fe(CN)_5(NO)] \cdot 2H_2O$. In this complex,the ligand $NO$ is treated as $NO^+$ (nitrosonium ion). The oxidation state of $Fe$ is calculated as: $2(+1) + x + 5(-1) + (+1) = 0$,which gives $x = +2$. Thus,the central metal is $Fe(II)$. The ligands are five cyanide ions (pentacyanido) and one nitrosyl group (nitrosyl). According to $IUPAC$ rules,the name is sodium pentacyanidonitrosylferrate$(II)$.

According to $IUPAC$ nomenclature,sodium nitroprusside is named as:
