[DCE 2002]
Options:
A) $ sp^{3} $
B) $ dsp^{3} $
C) $ sp^{3}d^{2} $
D) $ d^{2}sp^{3} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ K_3[Fe{{(CN)}_6}] $ Electronic configuration of $ Fe=[Ar]4s^{2}3d^{6} $ Electronic configuration of $ F{e^{+3}}=[Ar]3d^{5} $ Number of ligand (coordination numbr)=6 Nature of ligand is strong field.
Hybridization of $ Fe $ is $ d^{2}sp^{3} $ .
