The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

For \([Fe(NH_3)_6]^{2+}\), \(\Delta_0 < P\), hence the pairing of electrons does not occur in \(t_{2g}\). Therefore, the complex is outer orbital and its hybridisation is \(sp^3d^2\).
(A) \([Ni(CO)_4]\) - \(sp^3\) 
(B) \([Cu(NH_3)_4]^{2+}\) - \(dsp^2\) 
(C) \([Fe(NH_3)_6]^{2+}\) - \(sp^3d^2\) 
(D) \([Fe(H_2O)_6]^{2+}\) - \(sp^3d^2\) 
Thus, the correct match is: \[ \text{A - I, B - II, C - IV, D - III.} \]

Concepts Used:

Coordination Compounds

A coordination compound holds a central metal atom or ion surrounded by various oppositely charged ions or neutral molecules. These molecules or ions are re-bonded to the metal atom or ion by a coordinate bond.

Coordination entity:

A coordination entity composes of a central metal atom or ion bonded to a fixed number of ions or molecules.

Ligands:

A molecule, ion, or group which is bonded to the metal atom or ion in a complex or coordination compound by a coordinate bond is commonly called a ligand. It may be either neutral, positively, or negatively charged.
