Question

Given below are two statements:

Statement I: Hybridisation, shape and spin only magnetic moment of $$\mathrm{K_3[Co(CO_3)_3]}$$ is $$sp^3d^2$$, octahedral and $$4.9$$ BM respectively.

Statement II: Geometry, hybridisation and spin only magnetic moment values (BM) of the ions $$\mathrm{[Ni(CN)_4]^{2-}}$$, $$\mathrm{[MnBr_4]^{2-}}$$ and $$\mathrm{[CoF_6]^{3-}}$$ respectively are square planar, tetrahedral, octahedral; $$dsp^2$$, $$sp^3$$, $$sp^3d^2$$ and $$0$$, $$5.9$$, $$4.9$$.

In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
