Question

In $\left[Fe\right(CN{)}_{5}NO]$, sodium nitroprusside________.

• A. oxidation state of $Fe$ is $+2$
• B. this has ${NO}^{+}$ as ligand
• C. $d^2{sp}^3$-hybridization
• D. none of the above is correct

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

The correct options are
A oxidation state of $Fe$ is $+2$
B $d^2{sp}^3$-hybridization
C this has ${NO}^{+}$ as ligand

In $\left[Fe\right(CN{)}_{5}NO]$ the oxidation state of Fe is +2, $N{O}^{+}$ is the ligand and it has $d^{2}s{p}^3$-hybridization.
