The correct hybridization of F e in complex K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ] is
Options
- Ad s p 3
- Bs p 3
- Cs p 3 d 2
- Dd 2 s p 3
Correct answer
D. d 2 s p 3
Step-by-step solution
K 3 [ F e ( C N ) 6 ] Electronic configuration of F e = [ A r ] 4 s 2 3 d 6 Electronic configuration of F e + 3 = [ A r ] 3 d 5 Number of ligand (coordination numbr) = 6 Nature of ligand is strong field. Hybridization of F e is d 2 s p 3 .
