Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 226
Question: A square planar complex is formed by hybridisation of which atomic orbitals [AIEEE 2002]
Options:
A) $ s,p_{x},p_{y},d_{yz} $
B) $ s,p_{x},p_{y},{d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}} $
C) $ s,p_{x},{p_{y,}}{d_{z^{2}}} $
D) $ s,p_{y},p_{z},d_{xy} $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
For square planar geometry hybridization is $ dsp^{2} $ involving s, $ p_{x},,p_{y} $ and $ {d_{x^{2}-}}_{y^{2}} $ orbital.
