Question

The type of hybridization and the magnetic property of ${\left[{\mathrm{MnCl}}_{6}\right]}^{3-}$ are [JEE Main 2025, 2 Apr (Shift 2)]

YESPYQ · Accepted Answer

Correct answer: b) ${\mathrm{sp}}^{3}{\mathrm{d}}^{2}$, paramagnetic with four unpaired electrons. In ${\left[{\mathrm{MnCl}}_{6}\right]}^{3-}$, ${\mathrm{Cl}}^{-}$ is weak field ligand. ${\mathrm{Mn}}^{3+}({\mathrm{d}}^{4})$ remains high spin, geometry = ${\mathrm{sp}}^{3}{\mathrm{d}}^{2}$, with 4 unpaired electrons.
