Question
Of the following complex ions, which is diamagnetic in nature ?
Options
A.[ Ni ( CN)4]2-
B.[CuCl4]2-
C.[CoF6]3-
D.[NiCl4]2-
Solution
Electronic configuration of Ni2+ in [NiCl4]2- is
Ni2+ = 3d8 4s0
Ni2+ has dsp2 hybridisation, as CN2+ is a strong field ligend.
∴ [ Ni ( CN)4]2- is diamagnetic (because of the absence of unpaired electrons).
Ni2+ = 3d8 4s0
Ni2+ has dsp2 hybridisation, as CN2+ is a strong field ligend.
∴ [ Ni ( CN)4]2- is diamagnetic (because of the absence of unpaired electrons).
