A) trigonal bipyramidal
B) octahedral
C) tetrahedral
D) square pyramidal
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
In \[Fe{{(CO)}_{5}}\], the Fe atom is in \[ds{{P}^{3}}\] hybridised state. Therefore, the shape of molecule is trigonal bipyramidal. The hybridisation is as \[_{26}Fe=1{{s}^{2}},2{{s}^{2}}2{{p}^{6}},3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{6}}3{{d}^{6}},4{{s}^{2}}4{{p}^{0}}\] In \[Fe{{(CO)}_{5}}\] the Fe atom isYou need to login to perform this action.
