1. Nomenclature -

Ammonium diamminetetrahydroxonickelate (II)


2. 4 OH - and 2 NH3 ligands are attached to Ni ion, so a total of 6 ligands. its coordination number is 6.


3. coordination number 6 means it's possible geometry can be octahedral.


4. According to VBT, due to presence of all the weak field ligands, it's hybridisation is sp3d2.


5. It is a d8 system. 6 electrons in t2g and 2 in eg(in unpaired condition) .So it is paramagnetic.
