Statement I: In square planar complex is higher in energy than
Statement II: Ligand approach along and axis in square planar complex.
Statement II: Ligand approach along and axis in square planar complex.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Statement I and Statement II both are correct
Option A is correct. Statement I and Statement II are both correct because in a square planar complex, the d orbital experiences more repulsion from the ligands approaching along the x and y axes, thus having higher energy than d.
