These questions consist of two statements each, printed as statement-1 and statement-2, while answering these questions you are required to choose any one of the following responses :
(A) If statement-1 is true but the statement-2 is false.
(B) If statement-1 is false but statement-2 is true.
\( \mathrm{P} \)
(C) If both statements are true and the statement-2 is the correct explanation of statement-1.
W.
(D) If both statements are true but statement-2 is not the correct explanation of statement-1.
(E) Both statements are incorrect.
Statement-1 : Transition metal ion forming octahedral complexes undergo \( s p^{3} d^{2} \) or \( d^{2} s p^{3} \) hybridisation.
Statement-2 : Strong field ligands force the unpaired electrons of central metal ion to pair up causing \( d^{2} s p^{3} \) hybridisation whereas weak field ligands do not affect electronic configuration of the metal ion undergoes in \( s p^{3} d^{2} \) hybridisation.
