Answer #1

in this complex : Zn2+ : it is d10 configuration .

1) total d-electrons = 10

2) number of electrons in e set = 4

3) number of electrons in t2 set = 6

explanation:

10 d-electrons ----------------------> 4 e set + 6 t2 set electrons.

it is tetrahedral complex . and it is diamagnetic in nature
