Detailed Solution

Ethylene bis(salicylaldimine) ion is hexadentate ligand.

Its six donor atoms—two nitrogen and four oxygen atoms (of the carboxylic acid groups)—may form bonds with the metal atom, as can be seen from the structure. It is a hexadentate ligand as a result.

Hence, option D is correct.
