d s p^2 hybridisation is found in
Options
- A[ Ni ( CN )₄ ]²⁻
- B[ CoCl ₄ ]²⁻
- C[ CuCl ₄ ]³⁻
- D[ CuCl ₄ ]²⁻
Correct answer
A. [ Ni ( CN )₄ ]²⁻
Step-by-step solution
Electronic configuration of Ni : array ll Ni (Z=27) & : 4 s^2 3 d^7 Ni ²⁺ & : 3 d^7 array Therefore, hybridisation is d s p^2 and structure is square planar.
