Q. The type of hybridisation in tetrahedral complexes of metal atom is
A) $dsp^{2}$
B) $d^{2}sp$
C) $sp^{3}$
D) $sp^{2}$
Explanation
(c)
[table] Hybridisation | Shape ; $dsp^{2}$ | Square planar ; $sp^{3}$ | Tetrahedral ; $sp^{2}$ | Trigonal planar [/table]
Hence, in tetrahedral complexes metal atom is $sp^{3}$ hybridised.
