Answer 2

Answer:

a) [Ni(CO)4] has sp3 hybridization. Explain on the basis of valence bond theory that [Ni(CN)4]2– ion with square planar is diamagnetic and the [NiCl4]2– ion with tetrahedral geometry is paramagnetic. ... Therefore, it undergoes sp3 hybridization. Since there are 2 unpaired electrons in this case, it is paramagnetic in nature.

b) Dichlorobis(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) chloride is a coordination complex with the formula [CoCl2(en)2]Cl (en = ethylenediamine).
