An octahedral complex is formed when hybrid orbitals of the following type are involved

Options

A. `d^(2)sp^(3)`
B. `sp^(2)d^(2)`
C. `sp^(3)`
D. `dsp^(2)`

Answer

A

Explanation

Depending upon the nature of ligand ,ocahedral complex is of two types
(i) Inner orbital complex `(d^(2)sp^(3))to` formed under the influence of strong ligand.
(ii) . Outer orbital complex `(sp^(3)d^(2))to` formed under the inflience of weak ligands.
