Question

A complex involving dsp² hybridisation has ______.

विकल्प

• a square planar geometry

• a tetrahedral geometry

• an octahedral geometry

• trigonalplanar geometry

Answer 1

A complex involving dsp² hybridisation has a square planar geometry.

Explanation:

A complex involving dsp² hybridization occurs when one d orbital, one s orbital, and two p orbitals mix to form four hybrid orbitals.

This type of hybridization typically results in a square planar geometry, commonly seen in transition metal complexes, especially those with a metal in the +2 oxidation state (like [NiCl₄]²⁻).
