Explanation / Answer

Effective atomic number (EAN) rule states that organometallic coordination compounds are likely to be stable if :

The sum of the metal valence electrons plus the electrons donated by the ligand equals 18.

Eg., [Co(NH3)6]+3

No. of valence electrons in Co+3 = 6

6 ammonia, NH3 ligands donate 12 electrons .

So EAN = 6 + 12 = 18.
