    B) Mononuclear

    C) Tetranuclear

    D) Dinuclear

    Correct Answer: B

    \[\text{eg: Fe(CO}{{\text{)}}_{\text{5}}}\text{: monocuclear}\]
    \[\text{C}{{\text{o}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{(CO)}}_{\text{8}}}:\text{ dinuclear}\]
    \[\text{F}{{\text{e}}_{\text{3}}}{{\text{(CO)}}_{\text{12}}}:\text{ trinuclear}\]
    Hence, option [b] should be the right Sol..
