Addition of excess aqueous ammonia to a pink coloured aqueous solution of $M C l_{2} .6 H_{2} O (X)$ and $N H_{4} C l$ gives an octahedral complex Y in the presence of air. In aqueous solution, complex Y behaves as 1 :3 electrolyte. The reaction of X with excess $H C l$ at room temperature results in the formation of a blue coloured complex Z. The calculated spin only magnetic moment of X and Z is 3.87 B.M., whereas it is zero for the complex Y. Among the following options, which statement(s) is/are correct?

The hybridization of the central metal ion in Y is

Solution

The correct options are
A The hybridization of the central metal ion in Y is $d^{2} s p^{3}$
B Z is a tetrahedral complex
D When X and Z are in equilibrium at $0^{\circ} C$ , the colour of the solution is pink
$[C o (H_{2} O)_{6} (X)] O c t a h e d r a l (p i n k) (μ = 3.87 B . M .) C l_{2} A q . N H_{3} + N H_{4} C l - --------- \to a i r [C o (N H_{3})_{6}] C l_{3} (Y) (μ = 0)$

1:3 elctrolyte means $3 C l^{-} a n d o n e [C o (N H_{3})_{6}]^{3 +}$

Y is inner-orbital complex having $d^{2} s p^{3}$ hybridization and thus, all the electrons are paired in the complex.
