- ASquare planar
- ✓Trigonal bipyramid
- CTriangular
- DNone of these
✓
Answer
Correct option: B.
Trigonal bipyramid
b
$Fe ( CO )_{5}$ adopts a trigonal bipyramidal structure with the Fe atom surrounded by five CO ligands: three in equatorial positions and two axially bound. The Fe-C-O linkages are each linear.
