Solution

The correct option is C $4$
Solution:- (D) $4$
Platinum is bonded with two types of ligands,
Ammonia which is monodentate ligand is of two in number.
Chloride which is also a monodentate ligand is of two in number.
Therefore,
Co-ordination number of Platinum $= 2 \times 1 + 2 \times 1 = 2 + 2 = 4$
hence the coordination no. of ${P t}^{+ 2}$ is $4$ .
