$A$ coordination complex of type $MX_2Y_2$ ($M$ = metal ion; $X, Y$ = monodentate ligands) can have either a tetrahedral or a square planar geometry. The maximum number of possible isomers in these two cases are respectively:

  • A
    $1$ and $2$
  • B
    $2$ and $1$
  • C
    $1$ and $3$
  • D
    $3$ and $2$
