Explanation

To determine hybridization, we consider oxidation state, ligand strength, and geometry.

[CoF₆]³⁻ has Co³⁺ (d⁶) with fluoride as a weak field ligand, leading to a high-spin octahedral complex with sp³d² hybridization.

[Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ has Co³⁺ (d⁶) with ammonia as a strong field ligand, forming a low-spin octahedral complex with d²sp³ hybridization.

[NiCl₄]²⁻ has Ni²⁺ (d⁸) with chloride as a weak field ligand, resulting in a tetrahedral complex with sp³ hybridization.

[Ni(CN)₄]²⁻ has Ni²⁺ (d⁸) with cyanide as a strong field ligand, forming a square planar complex with dsp² hybridization.

The correct answer is option (1).

PYQ

Which of the following complex is homoleptic?

[JEE Main 2024, 1 Feb (Shift 1)]

a

\(\left[ Fe \left( NH _3\right)_4 Cl _2\right]^{+}\)

b

\(\left[ Ni \left( NH _3\right)_2 Cl _2\right]\)

c

\(\left[ Ni ( CN )_4\right]^{2-}\)

d

\(\left[ Co \left( NH _3\right)_4 Cl _2\right]^{+}\)

✓ Correct answer: c)

\(\left[ Ni ( CN )_4\right]^{2-}\)

Explanation

A homoleptic complex contains only one type of ligand.

(A) [Fe(NH₃)₄Cl₂]⁺ has NH₃ and Cl⁻ → heteroleptic

(B) [Ni(NH₃)₂Cl₂] has NH₃ and Cl⁻ → heteroleptic

(C) [Ni(CN)₄]²⁻ has only CN⁻ ligands → homoleptic

(D) [Co(NH₃)₄Cl₂]⁺ has NH₃ and Cl⁻ → heteroleptic

Thus, only option (C) satisfies the condition of having a single type of ligand. Hence, the correct answer is C.

d

0

✓ Correct answer: d)

0

Explanation

The complexes having yellow colour are:

K₃[Co(NO₂)₆] and K₄[Fe(CN)₆]

Now, calculate spin-only magnetic moment using number of unpaired electrons (n):

[Co(NO₂)₆]³⁻ → Co³⁺ = d⁶, strong field ligand ⇒ low spin ⇒ n = 0 ⇒ μ = 0

[Fe(CN)₆]⁴⁻ → Fe²⁺ = d⁶, strong field ligand ⇒ low spin ⇒ n = 0 ⇒ μ = 0

Thus, total magnetic moment = 0 + 0 = 0 B.M.

The correct increasing order of stability of the complexes based on \({\Delta }_{0}\) value is
I. \({\left[Mn(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{3-}\)
II. \({\left[Co(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{4-}\)
III. \({\left[Fe(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{4-}\)
IV. \({\left[Fe(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{3-}\)

a

II < III < I < IV

b

III < II < IV < I

c

I < II < IV < III

d

IV < III < II < I

✓ Correct answer: c)

I < II < IV < III

Explanation

(I) \({\left[Mn(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{3-}=-1.6{\Delta }_{0}\)
(II) \({\left[Co(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{4-}=-1.8{\Delta }_{0}\)
(III) \({\left[Fe(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{4-}=-2.4{\Delta }_{0}\)
(IV) \({\left[Fe(CN{)}_{6}\right]}^{3-}=-2.0{\Delta }_{0}\)

The stability of a complex can be correlated with its Crystal Field Stabilization Energy (CFSE). CFSE is the energy difference between the metal ion in the complex and its energy in the isolated state due to the splitting of d-orbitals in the presence of a ligand field. Higher CFSE values correspond to more stable complexes.

Statement (I) : In octahedral complexes, when \({\Delta }_{\mathrm{o}}<\mathrm{P}\) high spin complexes are formed. When \({\Delta }_{\mathrm{o}}>\mathrm{P}\) low spin complexes are formed.
Statement (II) : In tetrahedral complexes because of \({\Delta }_{\mathrm{t}}<\mathrm{P}\), low spin complexes are rarely formed.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

[JEE Main 2025, 2 Apr (Shift 1)]
