Question

The geometry and the number of unpaired electron(s) of [MnBr4]2, respectively, are:
  1. square planar and 1
  2. square planar and 5
  3. tetrahedral and 1
  4. tetrahedral and 5

A
square planar and 5
B
tetrahedral and 1
C
tetrahedral and 5
D
square planar and 1
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Mn2+ have d5 configuration and as Br is a weak field ligand it cannot pair up the d electrons therefore the hybridisation will be sp3 and the geometry will be tetrahedral with 5 unpaired electrons.
