Dimethyl glyoxime is added to alcoholic solution of NiCl_(2). When ammonium hydroxide is slowly added to it, a rosy red precipitate of a complex appears (i) Give the structure of the complex showing hydrogen bonds. (ii) Give oxidation state and hybridisation of central metal ion. (iii) Identify whether it is paramagnetic or diamagnetic.

Answer»

SOLUTION :
(ii) Oxidation state of Ni in the complex = + 2
Hybridisation = `dsp^(2)` (because it is a planar MOLECULE)
(III) It is diamagnetic (because there is no unpaired electron present).
