Question
The magnetic moment of [NiX4]2– ion is found to be zero. Then the metal of the complex ion is (X = monodentate anionic ligand).
Options
A.sp3 hybridised
B.spd2 hybridised
C.dsp2 hybridised
D.d2sp hybridised
Solution
Sol. Ni+2 = 3d8 ⇒ for C.N. = 4 ⇒ two hybridization is possible.
(i) dsp2, square planer, µ = 0
(ii) sp3, tetrahedral, µ ≠ 0
