The correct Answer is:
To determine which coordination complex exhibits `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridization, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Hybridization Hybridization is the concept of mixing atomic orbitals to form new hybrid orbitals. The notation `sp^(3)d^(2)` indicates that one s orbital, three p orbitals, and two d orbitals are involved in hybridization. ### Step 2: Identify the Coordination Number The coordination number is the number of ligand atoms that are bonded to the central metal atom. For `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridization, the coordination number is typically 6, which suggests an octahedral geometry. ### Step 3: Determine the Nature of Ligands The type of ligands (weak or strong) affects whether the d orbitals involved in hybridization are from the outer or inner shells. Strong field ligands cause pairing of electrons in the lower energy d orbitals (inner orbitals), while weak field ligands do not cause pairing. ### Step 4: Analyze the Given Options 1. If the complex has a coordination number of 4, it can either be tetrahedral (sp³) or square planar (dsp²). In both cases, `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridization is not applicable. 2. If the complex has a coordination number of 6, we need to check the ligands: - If the ligands are strong (like NH₃), they will cause pairing and lead to inner orbital complexes (d²sp³). - If the ligands are weak (like F⁻), they will not cause pairing, allowing the use of outer d orbitals, leading to `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridization. ### Step 5: Conclusion Based on the analysis, the complex that has `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridization must have a coordination number of 6 with weak field ligands. A suitable example is a complex with fluorine ligands. ### Final Answer The coordination complex that exhibits `sp^(3)d^(2)` hybridization is one that has a central metal atom with weak field ligands, such as fluorine, resulting in an outer orbital complex. ---
