Which of the following is the correct electronic configuration of `Ni` in `Ni(CO)_(4)`-

A

`[Ar]3d^(8)4s^(2)`

B

`[Ar]3d^(10)4s^(0)`

C

`[Ar]3d^(8)4s^(0)`

D

`[Ar]3d^(9)4s^(1)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

In `[Ni(CO)_(4)]`, `Ni` is `sp^(3` hybridised. In order to attain such hybridised state, two electrons from the 4s orbital are transferred to 3d - orbital of the Ni - atom.
