X is the metal in cisplatin; Y is the metal in vitamin B₁₂. Use the usual square-planar X(II) and octahedral Y(III) geometries. Which statements are correct?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, B, D
Solution:

X = Pt and Y = Co. Square-planar Ma₂b₂ gives cis/trans; octahedral tris-en gives Δ/Λ; octahedral Ma₄b₂ gives cis/trans. Both complexes in B/D contain Co(III).
