NEET 2026 Chemistry Hybridisation and Geometry Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

Match List I with List II:

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

A

A⁻III, B⁻IV, C⁻I, D⁻II

B

A⁻III, B⁻I, C⁻IV, D⁻II

C

A⁻IV, B⁻I, C⁻III, D⁻II

D

A⁻I, B⁻III, C⁻IV, D⁻II

Correct Answer

Option 2

Detailed Explanation

In [Pt(Cl₂)(NH₃)₂]; Pt has dsp² hybridisation, so shape of complex is square planar. In [Co(NH₃)₆]Cl₃; Co has d²sp³ hybridisation so shape of complex is octahedral. In [NiCl₄]²⁻; Ni has sp³ hybridisation so shape of complex ion is tetrahedral. In [Fe(CO)₅]; shape of complex is trigonal bipyramidal.
