MCQ
For the complexes showing the square pyramidal structure, the $d-$ orbital involved in the hybridisation is
- ✓$d_{x^2-y^2}$
- B$d_{z^2}$
- C$d_{xy}$
- D$d_{xz}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$d_{x^2-y^2}$
a
When five ligands are attached to the central metal atom, the central metal atom undergoes $d s p^{3}$ hybridization.
When five ligands are attached to the central metal atom, the central metal atom undergoes $d s p^{3}$ hybridization.
When $d_{z^{2}}$ orbital is involved in the hybridization, the geometry is trigonal bipyramidal.
When $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$ orbital is involved in the hybridization, the geometry is square pyramidal.
Hence the correct option is A.
