34. Read the text carefully and answer the questions:
To explain bonding in coordination compounds various theories were proposed. One of the important theories was
valence bond theory. According to that, the central metal ion in the complex makes available a number of empty

ata
orbitals for the formation of coordination bonds with suitable ligands. The appropriate atomic orbitals of the metal
hybridise to give a set of equivalent orbitals of definite geometry. The d - orbitals involved in the hybridisation may

be either inner d-orbitals i.e., (n - 1) d or outer d - orbitals i.e. nd. For example, Co3+ forms both inner orbital and
kh
outer orbital complexes, with ammonia it forms [Co(NH3)6]3+ and with fluorine it forms [CoF6]3- complex ion.
