The degree of ________ between the metal ion and the ligand directly influences the stability of the complex in solution.

B. dissociation
C. ionisation
D. freedom
This question was addressed to me in an interview for job.
My question comes from Stability of Coordination Compounds in division Coordination Compounds of Chemistry – Class 12
Correct option is A. association
To explain I would say: The magnitude of the equilibrium constant for the association quantitatively expresses the stability of the complex in solution.
