Options

  1. A{\left[{FeCl}_{4}\right]}^{-} has tetrahedral geometry.
  2. B[ Co ( en )(NH3)2Cl2]+{\left[\text{ Co } (\text{ en } ) {\left({NH}_{3}\right)}_{2}{Cl}_{2}\right]}^{+} has 22 geometrical isomers.
  3. C[FeCl4]−{\left[{FeCl}_{4}\right]}^{-} has higher spin-only magnetic moment than [Co(en)(NH3)2Cl2]+{\left[Co ( en ) {\left({NH}_{3}\right)}_{2}{Cl}_{2}\right]}^{+}
  4. DThe cobalt ion in[ Co ( en )(NH3)2Cl2]+{\left[\text{ Co } (\text{ en } ) {\left({NH}_{3}\right)}_{2}{Cl}_{2}\right]}^{+}has sp3d2{sp}^{3}{d}^{2} hybridization.

Correct answer

A. {\left[{FeCl}_{4}\right]}^{-} has tetrahedral geometry.

Step-by-step solution

(A)[FeCl4]−( A ) {\left[{FeCl}_{4}\right]}^{-}

Oxidation number of Fe atom =+3= + 3

Fe→3d64s2Fe \to 3{d}^{6}4{s}^{2}

Fe3+→3d5{Fe}^{3 +} \to 3{d}^{5}

Choose the correct statement(s) among the following:

∴[FeCl4]−∴ {\left[{FeCl}_{4}\right]}^{-} is having tetrahedral geometry
