Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
• B. A-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
• C. A-IV, B-III, C-I, D-II
• D. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II

Answer 2

$\text{sp}^3 \rightarrow \text{Tetrahedral}$
$\text{dsp}^2 \rightarrow \text{Square planar}$
$\text{sp}^3\text{d} \rightarrow \text{Trigonal bipyramidal}$
$\text{sp}^3\text{d}^2 \rightarrow \text{Octahedral}$
