Vedclass · Answer

(B) For $[Fe(H_2O)_6]^{3+}$:$Fe$ is in $+3$ oxidation state,$Fe^{3+} = [Ar] 3d^5$.$H_2O$ is a weak field ligand $(WFL)$,so it does not cause pairing of electrons.Thus,the hybridization is $sp^3d^2$ (outer orbital complex).For $[Co(NH_3)_6]^{3+}$:$Co$ is in $+3$ oxidation state,$Co^{3+} = [Ar] 3d^6$.$NH_3$ is a strong field ligand $(SFL)$,which causes pairing of electrons in the $3d$ orbitals.Thus,the hybridization is $d^2sp^3$ (inner orbital complex).Therefore,the hybridizations are $sp^3d^2$ and $d^2sp^3$ respectively.
