Question
Which of the following complex is not correctly matched with its geometry ?
Options
A.[NiCl2(Ph3P)2] - tetrahedral
B.[Co(Py)4]2+ - square planar.
C.[Cu(CN)4]3- - tetrahedral
D.[Fe(CO)4]2- - square planar.
Solution
In complex the iron is in -2 oxidation state. CO is strong field ligand and, therefore pairing of electrons occurs. So,
[Fe(CO)4]2 :
[Fe(CO)4]2 :
