The correct Answer is:
To determine the hybridization state of the Ni atoms in the given coordination compounds, we will analyze each compound step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(4-)` 1. **Identify the oxidation state of Ni**: In `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(4-)`, CN is a neutral ligand. Therefore, the oxidation state of Ni is +2. 2. **Determine the electron configuration of Ni**: The atomic number of Ni is 28. The electron configuration is `[Ar] 3d^8 4s^2`. 3. **Count the valence electrons**: Ni in the +2 oxidation state has lost 2 electrons (from 4s), resulting in `[Ar] 3d^8`. 4. **Determine the hybridization**: Since CN is a strong field ligand, it causes pairing of electrons in the 3d orbital. The hybridization involves the 3d, 4s, and 4p orbitals. The hybridization is `dsp^2` (which corresponds to square planar geometry). ### Step 2: Analyze `[Ni(PPh_(3))_(3)Br]` 1. **Identify the oxidation state of Ni**: In `[Ni(PPh_(3))_(3)Br]`, PPh3 is a neutral ligand and Br is a -1 ligand. Therefore, the oxidation state of Ni is +1. 2. **Determine the electron configuration of Ni**: As before, Ni has an atomic number of 28, and in the +1 oxidation state, it has the configuration `[Ar] 3d^8 4s^1`. 3. **Count the valence electrons**: Ni in the +1 oxidation state has 9 valence electrons (8 from 3d and 1 from 4s). 4. **Determine the hybridization**: The hybridization involves the 3d, 4s, and 4p orbitals. The hybridization is `dsp^3` (which corresponds to trigonal bipyramidal geometry). ### Step 3: Analyze `[Ni(dmg)_(2)]` 1. **Identify the oxidation state of Ni**: In `[Ni(dmg)_(2)]`, dmg (dimethylglyoxime) is a neutral ligand. Therefore, the oxidation state of Ni is +2. 2. **Determine the electron configuration of Ni**: Again, Ni has an atomic number of 28, and in the +2 oxidation state, it has the configuration `[Ar] 3d^8`. 3. **Count the valence electrons**: Ni in the +2 oxidation state has 8 valence electrons (from 3d). 4. **Determine the hybridization**: The hybridization involves the 3d and 4s orbitals. The hybridization is `sp^2` (which corresponds to planar geometry). ### Summary of Hybridization States - For `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(4-)`: Hybridization is `dsp^2`. - For `[Ni(PPh_(3))_(3)Br]`: Hybridization is `dsp^3`. - For `[Ni(dmg)_(2)]`: Hybridization is `sp^2`. ### Final Answer The hybridization states of the Ni atoms in the respective species are: 1. `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(4-)`: `dsp^2` 2. `[Ni(PPh_(3))_(3)Br]`: `dsp^3` 3. `[Ni(dmg)_(2)]`: `sp^2`

To determine the hybridization state of the Ni atoms in the given coordination compounds, we will analyze each compound step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(4-)` 1. **Identify the oxidation state of Ni**: In `[Ni(CN)_(4)]^(4-)`, CN is a neutral ligand.
