Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): | [NiCl4]2− is paramagnetic while [Ni(CO)4] is diamagnetic though both are tetrahedral. |
Reason (R): | CO is a strong field ligand, thus pairing of electrons takes place in [Ni(CO)4]. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | (A) is false but (R) is true. |
Assertion: ion shows magnetic moment corresponding to two unpaired electrons.
Reason: Because it has type hybridization.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
3. Assertion is true but the reason is false.
4. Assertion is false but the reason is true.
Assertion (A): and are reducing in nature.
Reason (R): Unpaired electrons are present in their d-orbitals.
1. Both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
2. Both assertion and reason are true and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
3. Assertion is true but the reason is false.
4. Assertion is false but reason is true.
