Strategy:
 Deduce the hybridization scheme directly by observing whether the specific ligand forces pairing (inner ) or accepts native  (outer outer-shell binding).

Step 1: Observe individual matches
- (A) : Contains  and weak field . Fails to force pairing. Uses outer  orbitals   (III).
- (B) : Contains  () and weak field .  unattainable due to no pairing. Forces  (tetrahedral) (II).
- (C) : Contains  and notably strong field . Compels pairing, freeing up  orbitals. Adopts inner  (I).
- (D) :
