WHat are primary and secondary valences? Please explain Werner theory of coordination compounds.
Answers (1)
In coordination compounds, there are two kinds of valencies for central atom i.e, primary and secondary valency. Primary valency is related to the oxidation state of element and secondary valency is related to the coordination number i.e number of ligands it can bind with itself.
