Detailed Solution

An atom in a molecule has electrons in 1s,2s,2p,3s,3p,3d and 4s orbitals Thus the outermost most valence shell composed of 3 d orbitals. 3 d-orbitals can form inner and outer orbital complex depending upon the types of ligands present. It can undergoes hybridisation of type sp3

Hence, option (C) is correct answer. 

 (e.g[NiCI4]2),dsp2(e.g[Ni(CN)4]2),sp3d2 (e.g.[CoF6]3d2sp3(e.g[NH3)6]3+),dsp3(e.g.[Fe(CO)5]
