The number of possible optical isomers for the complexesMA2B2withsp3anddsp2hybridized metal atom, respectively, is
Note: A and B are unidentate neutral and unidentate monoanionic ligands, respectively.

Options:

Answer:
B
Solution:

As inMA2B2tetrahedral structure which issp3hybridised, the central metal is not chiral hence it does not show optical isomers.
In the case of square planar that isdsp2hybridised, two geometrical isomers will form but not optical isomers.
