  • Cobalt ion has a primary and secondary valency of 3 and 6, respectively.
  • The charge on cobalt ion is +3, which balances the charges on carbonate and chloride ions. As a result, cobalt ion has a primary valency of 3.
  • In the coordination sphere, cobalt ion is surrounded by four mono dentate and one bidentate ligand (4 ammonia and one carbonate). As a result, the coordination number (secondary valency) is 6.
