[NiCI_(2){P(C_(2)H_(5))_(2)(C_(6)H_(5))}_(2)] exhibits temperature dependent magnetic behaviour(paramagnetic//diamagnetic) The coordination geometries of Ni^(2+) in the paramagnetic and diamagnetic states are respectively .

[NiCl_(4)]^(2-) is paramagnetic and therefore its geometry is :

Give reason for the statement [Ni(CN)_(4)]^(2-) is diamagnetic while [NiCl_(4)]^(2-) is paramagnetic in nature .
