Which one of the following complexes is an outer orbital complex Atomic nos $: \mathrm{Mn}=25, \mathrm{Fe}=26, \mathrm{Co}=27, \mathrm{Ni}=28$
  1. $\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}ight)_{3}ight]^{3+}$
  2. $\left[\mathrm{Mn}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}ight]^{3-}$
  3. $\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}ight]^{4-}$
  4. $\left[\mathrm{Ni}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}ight)_{6}ight]^{2+}$

Solution

Complex Hybridization of central atom $\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CN})_{6}ight]^{4} \mathrm{~d}^{2} \mathrm{~s} \mathrm{p}^{3}$ (inner) $\left[\operatorname{Mn}(C N)_{6}ight]^{4} d^{2} s p^{3}$ (inner) $\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}ight)_{6}ight]^{3+} d^{2} \mathrm{sp}^{3}$ (inner) $\left[\mathrm{Ni}\left(\mathrm{NH}_{3}ight)_{6}ight]^{2+} \mathrm{sp}^{3} \mathrm{~d}^{2}$ (outer)
