If the ligand has a negative charge at a particular location, what would happen if you tried to put electrons from the metal near the electrons from the ligand?

The two would end up repelling each other very strongly and more energy would ultimately be required to keep the metal-ligand system in place

Explanation:

A complex is made up a central metal atom or ion and ligands. Ligands are lewis bases and they possess lone pairs of electrons. A complex is formed when electrons are donated from ligand species to metals.

However, if the ligand has a negative charge at a particular location and we try to put electrons from the metal near the electrons from the ligand, the two would end up repelling each other very strongly and more energy would ultimately be required to keep the metal-ligand system in place.

the answer is a and have a great day
