Question

Match List I with List II :

List I (Complex/ion) List II
A. $$\left\lbrack Pt\left( {Cl}_{2} \right)\left( {NH}_{3} \right)_{2} \right\rbrack$$ (I) Octahedral
B. $$\left\lbrack Co\left( {NH}_{3} \right)_{6} \right\rbrack{Cl}_{3}$$ (II) Trigonal bipyramidal
C. $$\left\lbrack {NiCl}_{4} \right\rbrack^{2 -}$$ (III) Square planar
D $$\left\lbrack Fe(CO)_{5} \right\rbrack$$ (IV) Tetrahedral

Choose the correct Ans. from the options given below:

Options

A.A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
B.A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
C.A-IV, B-I, C-III, D-II
D.A-I, B-III, C-IV, D-II

Solution

Sol. [Key Concept: Matching reagents with trAns.formations]

- In $\left\lbrack Pt\left( {Cl}_{2} \right)\left( {NH}_{3} \right)_{2} \right\rbrack$; Pt has $dsp^{2}$ hybridisation, so shape of complex is square planar.

$- \ In\left\lbrack Co\left( {NH}_{3} \right)_{6} \right\rbrack{Cl}_{3};Co$ has $d^{2}sp^{3}$ hybridisation so shape of complex is octahedral.

- In $\lbrack NiCl\rbrack^{2 -}$; Ni has $sp^{3}$ hybridisation so shape of complex ion is tetrahedral.

- In $\left\lbrack Fe(CO)_{5} \right\rbrack$; shape of complex is trigonal bipyramidal.
