NGC 2110 is a well-studied Seyfert which display many enigmatic properties. We propose a 150ks HETG observation as the next scientific step & complement to the 50ks ACIS (imaging) observation, which shows soft emission from both the core & extent. HETG observation will unambiguously resolve the nature of the soft excess, and allow for detailed measurements of velocity profiles & ionization states of the surrounding gas. Detection of the iron K narrow core will resolve geometry-related arguments which have direct bearing on Unification. The properties of NGC 2110 which are distinct from many of the canonical Seyferts will allow for a comprehensive study (when compared with AO1 HETG/LETG observations) of the high resolution X-ray properties of the range of Seyferts.
