1.

All the complexes of Pt(+II)" and "Au(+III) with strong field as well as with weak field ligands are square planar. Statement-2: The crystal field splitting Delta_(0) is larger for second and third row transition elements, and for more highly charged species. This larger value of Delta_(0) energetically favours the pairing of electron for square planar geometry.
