Solution

The answer is 0.
Synergic back bonding is present in transition metal carbonyls.
π backbonding is a concept in which electrons move from an atomic orbital on one atom to a π antibonding orbital on a π acceptor ligand. It is especially common in the organometallic chemistry of transition metals with multi-atomic ligands such as carbon monoxide, ethylene or the nitrosonium cation.
An example is shown above.
