Question

The geometry of Ni(CO)₄ and [Ni(P Ph₃)₂] are

easy

Solution

Correct option is

Both tetrahedral

Ni(CO)₄ : tetrahedral (strong field ligand, CO, forces 4s² electrons into 3dorbital

[NiP(Ph₃)₂Cl₂] i.e., Ni(II) : 3d⁸4s⁰4p⁰

(sp³ hybridisation as weak field ligands P’Ph₃ and Cl do not force the two unpaired 3d electrons to be paired up.
