(d) $P \rightarrow 4,6 ; Q \rightarrow 5,6 ; R \rightarrow 1,2 ; S \rightarrow 3$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 56. (c)
Solution:
- For, $\boldsymbol{P}$ i.e. $\boldsymbol{d} \boldsymbol{s} \boldsymbol{p}^{2}$, It is seen in $\left[Ni(CN) _4\right]^{2-}$
$ \begin{aligned} & Ni-[Ar] 3 d^{8} 4 s^{2} \\ & Ni^{2+}-[Ar] 3 d^{8} \end{aligned} $
as $CN^{-}$ is a strong ligand so when it approaches towards central metal pairing of unpaired electrons takes place.
Thus, in $\left[Ni(CN) _4\right]^{2-}$
Structure Square planar
So correct match for $P$ is 6 .
For $Q$ i.e., $s p^{3}$
It is seen in $\left[FeCl _4\right]^{2-}$ and $Ni(CO) _4$
As $Cl^{-}$ is a weak ligand so when it approaches towards central metal pairing of unpaired electrons does not take place.
Thus, in $\left[FeCl _4\right]^{2-}$
Structure Tetrahedral
Likewise in $Ni(CO) _4$
$ \begin{aligned} & Ni-[Ar] 3 d^{8} 4 s^{2} \end{aligned} $
As CO is a strong ligand, hence when it approaches towards central metal atom pairing of unpaired electron of central atom takes place.
Thus, in $Ni(CO) _4$
Structure Tetrahedral
So, for $Q-4$ and 5 are correct match.
For $R$ i.e., $s p^{3} d^{2}$
It is seen in $\left[FeF _6\right]^{4-}$
$ \begin{gathered} Fe-[Ar] 3 d^{6} 4 s^{2} \\ Fe^{2+}-[Ar] 3 d^{6} \end{gathered} $
As $F^{-}$ is a weak field ligand hence, when it approaches towards central metal atom, pairing of its electrons does not take place. Thus, in $\left[FeF _6\right]^{4-}$
Structure Octahedral
So, 1 is the correct match for $R$.
For $S$ i.e., $d^{2} s p^{3}$
It is seen in $\left[Ti\left(H _2 O\right) _3 Cl _3\right]$ and $\left[Cr\left(NH _3\right) _6\right]^{3+}$
$ \begin{aligned} & Ti-[Ar] 3 d^{2} 4 s^{2} \\ & Ti^{3+}-[Ar] 3 d^{1} \end{aligned} $
Here, both $H _2 O$ and $Cl$ are weak ligands
So, in $\left[Ti\left(H _2 O\right) _3 Cl _3\right]$
Structure Octahedral
Likewise in $\left[Cr\left(NH _3\right) _6\right]^{3+}$
$ \begin{aligned} & Cr-[Ar] 3 d^{5} 4 s^{1} \\ & Cr^{3+}-[Ar] 3 d^{3} 4 s^{0} \end{aligned} $
Here, $NH _3$ is also a weak field ligand so due to its approach no pairing takes place in $Cr$.
Thus, $\operatorname{In}\left[Cr\left(NH _3\right) _6\right]^{3+}$
So for, $S-2$ and $3$ are the correct match.
