The geometry of a complex species can be understood from the knowledge of type of hybridisation of orbitals of central atom.
The geometry of a complex species can be understood from the knowledge of type of hybridisation of orbitals of central atom. The hybridisation of orbitals of central atom in [Be(OH)4]– and the geometry of the complex are respectively
(i) sp3 , tetrahedral
(ii) sp3 , square planar
(iii) sp3d2 , octahedral
(iv) dsp2 , square planar
