Sep 10, 2020 at 11:10 comment added Jan I think these two questions are sufficiently different to not warrant a dupe-closure. This one asks ‘What is the denticity of bridging ligands’ while the other asks ‘can an atom with multiple lone pair donate twice (I assume, although it isn’t implicit, to the same atom)?’. Full disclosure: I have a horse in the race as I have answered here.

Sep 10, 2020 at 0:26 comment added Mithoron Does this answer your question? Why Cl⁻ can't act as bidentate ligand?
Sep 9, 2020 at 12:26 comment added Aniruddha Deb I was wrong. Jan's answer clears that up. Bridging ligands with a single donor atom are monodentate.
