हिन्दीThe manganate and permanganate ions are tetrahedral, due to _________.
Correct answer · Option 4
the \( \pi \)-bonding involves overlap of p-orbitals of oxygen with d-orbitals of manganese
Explanation
The \( p\pi - d\pi \) bonding between oxygen p-orbitals and manganese d-orbitals stabilizes the tetrahedral geometry of manganate and permanganate ions.
