Match the carbonyl (List I) with its geometry and metal hybridisation (List II). List I: P ; Q ; R ; S . List II: 1 tetrahedral, ; 2 trigonal bipyramidal, ; 3 octahedral, ; 4 contains a metal-metal bond and no bridging CO.

  1. AP-1, Q-2, R-3, S-4
  2. BP-2, Q-1, R-3, S-4
  3. CP-1, Q-3, R-2, S-4
  4. DP-1, Q-2, R-4, S-3

Answer: A

is tetrahedral (). is trigonal bipyramidal (). is octahedral (). has a Mn-Mn bond with ten terminal . So P-1, Q-2, R-3, S-4.
