The central metal ion present in this complex in `Ni(II)`. Atomic number of Nickel is 28. Electronic configuration is `Ni^(+2)` is `[Ar]3d^(8)HS^(@)`

One vacant 4S - orbital and three vacant 4P - orbital hybridize to give `SP^(3)` hybrid orbital .S.. Oriented tetrahedral.

each `Cl^(-)` ligand donate a pair of `e^(-n)` to form tetrahedral complex
