Missing question:

A. [PdZn (H2O) 2 (CO) 2]Br4.

B. [Zn (H2O) 2 (CO) 2]2[PdBr4].

C. [Pd (H2O) 2][Zn (CO) 2]Br4.

D. [Pd (H2O) 2]2[Zn (CO) 2]3Br4.

E. [Zn (H2O) 2 (CO) 2][PdBr4].

Answer is: E. [Zn (H2O) 2 (CO) 2][PdBr4] ...

In this complex diaqua means two waters (H₂O), dicarbonyl means two carbonyl groups (CO), zinc (Zn) and palladium (Pd) are central atoms or metals, bromine has negative charge - 1. Bromine, water and carbonyl are ligands.
