Solution
The expression for the effective atomic number EAN is as given below.
E
A
N
=
Z
−
X
+
Y
Here, Z is the atomic number of metal,
X is the number of electrons lost during the formation of the metal ion from its atom and
Y is the number of electrons donated by the ligands.
For
[

,
Z
=
24
,
X

and
Y
=
