Pick out the correct statement with respect to [Mn(CN)_(6)]^(3-)

Answer»

It is `sp^(3)d^(2)`-hybridized and OCTAHEDRAL
It is `sp^(3)d^(2)`-hybridized and TETRAHEDRAL
It is `d^(2)sp^(3)`-hybridized and octahedral
Itis `dsp^(2)`-hybridized and square planar

Solution :In `[Mn(CN)_(6)]^(3-), Mn^(3+)=3d^(4)`

In presence of strong field LIGAND, `CN^(-)`,
`[Mn(CN)_(6)]^(3-)` =
ltbgt Thus, the COMPLEX is `d^(2)sp^(3)` hybridized having octahedral shape.
