Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
B

Take a look at the crystal field splitting diagram to see if your metal ion is in group 8 or has a d8 configuration. A four-tiered diagram is seen in square planar complexes (i.e. four different sets of orbitals with different energies). It is tetrahedral if the crystal field splitting diagram contains two tiers.
