The geometry of the compound `[Pt(NH_(3))_(2)Cl_(2)]` isA. Square planarB. PyramidalC. TetrahedralD. octahedral |
Answer» Correct Answer - A O.S.of Pt (Z = 78) in the complex is `+2(Pt^(2+))Pt^(2+) : [Xe]^(54)4f^(14)5d^(8)` The eight electrons in 5d-subshell pair up in four d-orbitals followed by `dsp^(2)`-hybridisation. The shape of the complex is square planar. |
