A
B
C
D
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Shape : Square planar
causes pairing of electron hence, diamagnetic)
(in zero O.S.) 
hybridisation
Shape : Tetrahedral
(Diamagnetic)
hybridisation
Shape : Tetrahedral
weak field ligant cause no pairing of electron hence, paramagnetic)
Shape : Octahedral, paramagnetic
