  1. A \(d^2 s p^3\), paramagnetic with four unpaired electrons
  2. B \(\mathrm{sp}^3 \mathrm{~d}^2\), paramagnetic with four unpaired electrons
  3. C \(\mathrm{d}^2 \mathrm{sp}^3\), paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons
  4. D \(\mathrm{sp}^3 \mathrm{~d}^2\), paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\mathrm{sp}^3 \mathrm{~d}^2\), paramagnetic with four unpaired electrons

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\begin{aligned} & {\left[\mathrm{MnCl}_6\right]^{3-} \text { contains } \mathrm{Mn}^{+3}} \\ & \mathrm{Mn}^{+3}:-[\mathrm{Ar}] 3 \mathrm{~d}^4 \\ & \text { Ligand } \Rightarrow \mathrm{Cl}^{-}(\mathrm{WFL})\end{aligned}\) \(\text { Hybridisation }=\mathrm{sp}^3 \mathrm{~d}^2\)…
