Which of the following compounds is square planar and does not have any unpaired electron ?A. `Ni(CO)_(4)`B. `[Ni(H_(2)O)_(6)]^(2+)`C. `[NiCl_(4)]^(2-)`D. `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(2-)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - D `Ni(CO)_(4)` : Tetrahedral. No unpaired electron. `[Ni(H_(2)O)_(6)]^(2+)` : Octahedral . Two unpaired electrons. `[NiCl_(4)]^(2+)` : Tetrahedral. Two unpaired electrons `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(2-)` : Square planar. No unpaired electrons |
