Answer:
Correct Option is
2 ). Tetrahedral geometry and diamagnetic ✔️
Explanation :
Refer the attached picture.
The atomic number of Ni = 28
There are 2 electrons in 4s orbital and 8 electrons in 3d orbital.
As CO is a strong field ligánd according to spectrochemical series. So, pairing will take place.
The hibridišation obtained after pairing of electrons is sp^3. ( Tetrahedrál shape)
As all the electrons get paired , so magnetic behaviour is Diamagnetic.
