NEET Chemistry Coordination Number Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Medium-Class 12

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-IColumn-II
(a) Tetrahedral(i) 6
(b) Square planar(ii) 4
(c) Octahedral(iii) 5
(d) Trigonal bipyramidal(iv) 4
A

a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv

B

a-iv, b-i, c-i, d-iii

C

a-ii, b-iv, c-i, d-iii

D

a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv

Correct Answer

Option C

Detailed Explanation

In coordination compounds, tetrahedral geometry has a coordination number of 4, octahedral has 6, trigonal bipyramidal has 5, and square planar also has 4. This matches the NCERT context where the coordination numbers for these geometries are discussed.
