Complex ions, ligands and coordination number

Common shapes of complex ions showing octahedral, tetrahedral, square planar and linear arrangements with coordination numbers and bond angles labelled

A complex ion has a central metal ion surrounded by ligands. Each ligand donates a lone pair to the metal ion to form a coordinate bond.
