Consider the following two complex ions : [CoF6]3- and [Co(C2O4)3]3-. Which of the following statement(s) is/are false?

I. Both are octahedral.

II. [Co(C2O4)3]3- is diamagnetic while [CoF6]3- is paramagnetic.

III. Both are outer orbital complexes.

IV. In both the complexes, the central metal is in the same oxidation state.

  • Both II and III

  • II, III and IV

407.

The hybridised state of Al3+ in the complex ion formed when AlCl3 is treated with aqueous acid is

  • sp3

  • dsp2

  • sp3d2

  • sp2d


C.

sp3d2

AlCl3 + aqueous acid → [Al(H2O)6]3+

Al3+ ions give a complex ion in which Al3+ ion form six coordinate covalent bonds with 6 H2O molecules.

Hence, it shows sp3d2 hybridisation due to availability of vacant 3d-orbitals.
