Hexafluorocobaltate (III) ion is a high spin complex. The hybrid state of cobalt is

A

`d^(2)sp^(3)`

B

`sp^(3)d^(2)`

C

`dsp^(2)`

D

`sp^(3)d`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The formula of the ion is `[CoF_(6)]^(3-)` . It is an octahedral complex with high spin . As such the hybrid state should be `sp^(3)d^(2)` .
