Addition of excess aqueous ammonia to a pink coloured aqueous solution of $\mathrm{MCl}_{2} \cdot 6 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$ (X) and $\mathrm{NH}_{4} \mathrm{Cl}$ gives an octahedral complex Y in the presence of air. In aqueous solution, complex Y behaves as 1 : 3 electrolyte. The reaction of X with excess HCl at room temperature results in the formation of a blue coloured complex Z.

[JEE - Adv. 2017]
Ans. (A,B,D)
(A) Hybridisation of $(\mathrm{Y})$ is $\mathrm{d}^{2} \mathrm{sp}^{3}$ as $\mathrm{NH}_{3}$ is strong field ligand
(B) $\left[\mathrm{CoCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}$ have $\mathrm{sp}^{3}$ hybridisation as $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ is weak field ligand
When ice is added to the solution the equilibrium shifts right hence pink colour will remain predominant
So, correct answer is (A,B& D)
(A) Hybridisation of $(\mathrm{Y})$ is $\mathrm{d}^{2} \mathrm{sp}^{3}$ as $\mathrm{NH}_{3}$ is strong field ligand
(B) $\left[\mathrm{CoCl}_{4}\right]^{2-}$ have $\mathrm{sp}^{3}$ hybridisation as $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ is weak field ligand

(A) $\left[\mathrm{Fe}\left(\mathrm{CO}_{5}\right)\right] \&\left[\mathrm{Ni}(\mathrm{CO})_{4}\right]$ complexes have 18-electrons in their valence shell.
(B) Carbonyl complexes are predominantly low spin complexes due to strong ligand field.
(C) As electron density increases on metals (with lowering oxidation state on metals), the extent of synergic bonding increases. Hence M–C bond strength increases
(D) While positive charge on metals increases and the extent of synergic bond decreases and hence C–O bond becomes stronger.
