Coordination Compounds

There are two ligands in the coordination entity, that is, ammine and aqua, but according to the IUPAC rule, alphabetical order is followed, that is, ammine is named first. Now calculating the oxidation state of Co, the net charge on the coordination entity is +3 as Cl has −1 and there are three Cl− outside the square brackets. So the oxidation state of Co will be III as both ammine and aqua are neutral ligands. So, its correct name will be diamminetetraaquacobalt (III) chloride.
