Which of the following species has square planar geometry ?

`[NiCl_(2)(PPh_(3))_(2)]^(2+)`

`[Co(SCN)_(4)]^(2-)`

`[PtCl_(2)(NH_(3))_(2)]`

`[CrCl_(4)]^(-)`

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:

Pt is in `+3` oxidation state having `5d^(8)` configuration . So,
`[PtCl_(2)(NH_(3))_(2)]`

Thus, it has square planar geometry and is diamagnetic.
