Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) It is a neutral complex.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\mathrm{Pt}\left[\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right] \rightarrow\) It is a neutral complex. In this complex, chlorine atoms are in coordination sphere. Coordination number of \(\mathrm{Pt}=4\), oxidation state of \(\mathrm{Pt}+2\).
