Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) (A) - (III), (B) - (IV), (C) - (I), (D) - (II)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) \(\left[ NiCl _4\right]^{2-}\): \(Ni^{2+}\) (\(d^8\)). \(\text{Cl}^-\) is weak field, tetrahedral. \(n=2\). (B)\(\left[ Co \left( NH _3\right)_6\right]^{3+}\): \(Co^{3+}\) (\(d^6\)). \(\text{NH}_3\) is strong field, octahedral. \(n=0\). (C) \(\left[ FeF _6\right]^{3-}\):…
