1.

STATEMENT-1: All the complexes of Pt `(+squaresquare)` and Au `(+squaresquaresquare)` with strong field as well as with weak field ligands are square planar. STATEMENT-2 : The crystal filed spliting energy is larger for secong and third row transition elements, and for more highly charged species. This large value of crystal field splitting enerfy energetically favours the pairing of electron for square planar geometry.A. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is a correct explanation for statement-1.B. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is True, Statement-2 is NOT a correct explation for statement-1C. Statement-1 is True, Statement-2 is False.D. Statement-1 is False, Statement-2 is True.
