The pair(s) of complexes wherein both exhibit tetrahedal geometry is(are) (Note: py = pyridine
Given: Aomic numbers of Fe, Co Ni and Cu are 26, 27, 28 and 29, respectively) (2021)
  1. \(\left[\mathrm{FeCl}_{4}\right]^{-} \text {and }\left[\mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{CO})_{4}\right]^{2-}\)
  2. \(\left[\mathrm{Co}(\mathrm{CO})_{4}\right]^{-} \text {and }\left[\mathrm{CoCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}\)
  3. \(\left[\mathrm{Ni}(\mathrm{CO})_{4}\right] \text { and }\left[\mathrm{Ni}(\mathrm{CN})_{4}\right]^{2-}\)
  4. \(\left[\mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{py})_{4}\right]^{+} \text {and }\left[\mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{CN})_{4}\right]^{3-}\)

Answer

(A) [ FeCl _ 4 ]^ - and [ Fe ( CO )_ 4 ]^ 2-, (B) [ Co ( CO )_ 4 ]^ - and [ CoCl _ 4 ]^ 2-, (D) [ Cu ( py )_ 4 ]^ + and [ Cu ( CN )_ 4 ]^ 3-
