The geometry and magnetic behaviour of the complex `[Ni(CO)_4]` are

A

(a) square planar geometry and diamagnetic

B

(b) tetrahedral geometry and diamagnetic

C

(c) square planar geometry and paramangetic

D

(d) tetrahedral geometry and paramagnetic

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Tetrahedral geometry and diamagnetic

CO is strong field ligand which causes forced diamagentic

`sp^3` hybridisation
Tetrahedral, diamagnetic.
