Question

Match List - I with List - II.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
• B. (A)-(III), (B)-(IV), (C)-(I), (D)-(II)
• C. (A)-(III), (B)-(II), (C)-(I), (D)-(IV)
• D. (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)

Hint:

For coordination compounds, use the valence bond theory (VBT) and crystal field splitting to determine hybridization.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

• [{CoF}_6]^{3-}: Has an sp^3d^2 hybridization.
• [{NiCl}_4]^{2-}: Exhibits sp^3 hybridization.
• [{Co(NH}_3)_6]^{3+}: Has a d^2sp^3 hybridization.
• [{Ni(CN}_4]^{2-}: Forms a dsp^2 hybridization.
