In coordination compounds, metals show two types of linkages, primary and secondary. Primary valencies are ionisable and are satisfied by negatively charged ions. Secondary valencies are non-ionisable and are satisfied by neutral or negative ions having lone pair of electrons. Primary valencies are non-directional while secondary valencies decide the shape of the complexes.

(ii)
What is the secondary valency of $\displaystyle \left[\mathrm{Co}(\mathrm{en})_{3}\right]^{3+}$?
(iii)(1)
