Step-by-step explanation
(A) Strength of anionic ligands cannot be explained by CFT instead LFT i.e., ligand field theory explains the strength of ligands.
(B) VBT does not give a quantitative interpretation of kinetic stability of coordination compounds.
(C) in presence of ligand.
Square planar geometry since hybridised orbitals created.
(D) cis- It has two possible isomers
