The correct Answer is:
To determine which statements are false regarding coordination compounds, we will analyze each statement step by step. ### Step 1: Analyze the First Statement **Statement:** In [PtCl2(NH3)4]²⁺, the cis form is optically active while the trans form is optically inactive. **Analysis:** - The complex [PtCl2(NH3)4]²⁺ has a square planar geometry. - In the trans form, the two Cl ligands are opposite each other, creating a plane of symmetry. This means it is optically inactive. - In the cis form, the two Cl ligands are adjacent, but there is still a plane of symmetry due to the arrangement of the ligands. Therefore, it is also optically inactive. **Conclusion:** The first statement is false. ### Step 2: Analyze the Second Statement **Statement:** In the complex [Fe(C2O4)3]³⁻, geometrical isomers do not exist while optical isomerism does exist. **Analysis:** - The complex [Fe(C2O4)3]³⁻ has a coordination number of 6 and consists of bidentate ligands (oxalate). - Since there is no symmetry in the arrangement of the oxalate ligands, only optical isomers exist, and geometrical isomers do not. **Conclusion:** The second statement is true. ### Step 3: Analyze the Third Statement **Statement:** In MA2BC tetrahedral complexes, optical isomerism can't be observed. **Analysis:** - Tetrahedral complexes can have different arrangements of ligands. If the ligands are arranged such that there is no plane of symmetry, optical isomerism can occur. - Therefore, it is possible for optical isomerism to be observed in tetrahedral complexes. **Conclusion:** The third statement is false. ### Step 4: Analyze the Fourth Statement **Statement:** In MA2BC square planar complexes, optical isomerism can be observed. **Analysis:** - Square planar complexes often have a plane of symmetry due to their arrangement. If there is a plane of symmetry, optical isomerism cannot occur. - Therefore, square planar complexes typically do not exhibit optical isomerism. **Conclusion:** The fourth statement is false. ### Final Conclusion The false statements are: 1. The first statement is false. 2. The third statement is false. 3. The fourth statement is false. Thus, the answer is that statements 1, 3, and 4 are false.
