Question

Pick out the correct statement with respect to [Mn(CN)6]3 :
  1. It is dsp2 hybridised and square planar
  2. It is sp3d2 hybridised and octahedral
  3. It is sp3d2 hybridised and tetrahedral
  4. It is d2sp3 hybridised and octahedral

A
It is sp3d2 hybridised and tetrahedral
B
It is dsp2 hybridised and square planar
C
It is sp3d2 hybridised and octahedral
D
It is d2sp3 hybridised and octahedral
Solution
Verified by Toppr

In the complex [Mn(CN)6]3, the Mn3+ ion has d4 outer electronic configuration.

It is an inner orbital complex. Inner d orbitals are used which results in d2sp3 hybridisation.

The molecular geometry is octahedral.

Hence the option D is correct.

Q3
Assertion :Transition metal ion forming octahedral complexes undergo sp3d2 or d2sp3 hybridisation. Reason: Strong field ligands force the unpaired electrons of central metal ion to pair up causing d2sp3 hybridisation whereas weak field ligands do not affect electronic configuration of the metal ion undergoes in sp3d2 hybridisation.
