Which of the following is not true for ligand-metal complex.
A
Larger the ligand, the more stable is the metal-ligand bond
B
Highly charged ligand forms strong bond
C
Larger the permanent dipole moment of ligand, the more stable is the bond
D
Greater the ionization potential of central metal, the stronger is the bond
