JEE Main 2022 — Coordination Compounds Question with Solution

Given below are two statements :

Statement I: ${\left[\mathrm{Ni}{\left(\mathrm{CN}\right)}_4\right]}^{2-}$ is square planar and diamagnetic complex, with ${\mathrm{dsp}}^2$ hybridization for $\mathrm{Ni}$ but $\left[\mathrm{Ni}{\left(\mathrm{CO}\right)}_4\right]$ is tetrahedral, paramagnetic and with ${\mathrm{sp}}^3$ hybridication for $\mathrm{Ni}$.

Statement II : ${\left[{\mathrm{NiCl}}_4\right]}^{2-}$ and $\left[\mathrm{Ni}{\left(\mathrm{CO}\right)}_4\right]$ both have same d-electron configuration, have same geometry and are paramagnetic.

In light the above statements, choose the correct answer form the options given below
