The geometry and magnetic behaviour of the complex `[Ni(CO)_4]` are

A

Square planar geometry and diamagnetic

B

Tetrahedral geometry and diamgnetic

C

Square planar geometry and paramagnetic

D

Tetrahedral geometry and paramagnetic

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Tetrahedral geometry and diamagnetic
`Ni rarr 3d^(8) 4s^(2)`

So is SFL so unpaired electrons will get paired.

`sp^(3)` hybridisation
Tetrahedral, diamagnetic.
