The structure of [ Cu , ( H_2 O ) _4 ]^ + + ion is - Vidyadip

MCQ

The structure of ${\left[ {Cu\,{{\left( {{H_2}O} \right)}_4}} \right]^{ + + }}$ ion is

✓
Square planar
B
Tetrahedral
C
Distorted rectangle
D
Octahedral

✓

Answer

Correct option: A.

Square planar

a
The structure of this ion is square planar. This is explained by $CFT$ which does not involve hybridisation but only ionic interaction. $Cu ^{2+}$ ion has $3 d ^9$ configuration always forms square planar compounds irrespective of nature of the ligand.
