Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

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

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) \([Ni(CO)_4]\): Ni(0), \(d^{10}\) (paired). CN=4 \(\rightarrow sp^3\). (B) \([Ni(CN)_4]^{2-}\): Ni(+2), \(d^8\) (paired). CN=4 \(\rightarrow dsp^2\). (C) \([Co(NH_3)_6]^{3+}\): Co(+3), \(d^6\) (paired). CN=6 \(\rightarrow d^2sp^3\). (D) \([CoF_6]^{3-}\): Co(+3), \(d^6\)…
