Postulates:
(a) The central metal atom (or) ion in a coordination compound exhibits two types of valencies - primary and secondary.
(b) Primary valencies are ionisable and correspond to the number of charges on the complex ion. Primary valencies apply equally well to simple salts and to complexes and are satisfied by negative ions.
