Detailed Solution

Geometrical isomerism exists in the complex PtCl2NH3OH2 in the form of cis and trans isomers.

Platinum has an oxidation state of +2 and an outer electronic configuration of 5d8

Pt is dsp2 hybridised, resulting in square planar geometry.

All of the electrons are paired, and the molecule is diamagnetic.
