Given below are two statements.
Statement-I: Stannane is an example of a molecular hydride.
Statement-II: Stannane is a planar molecule
In the light of the above statement, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Statement-I: Stannane is an example of a molecular hydride.
Statement-II: Stannane is a planar molecule
In the light of the above statement, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
- Both Statement-I and Statement-II are true
- Both Statement-I and Statement-II are false
- Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false
- Statement-I is false but Statement-II is true
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Stannane or tin hydride is an inorganic compound with formula SnH4
Structure of SnH4 is
∵ It is a non-planar molecule.
So, the correct option is (C): Statement-I is true but Statement-II is false.

Concepts Used:
Coordination Compounds
A coordination compound holds a central metal atom or ion surrounded by various oppositely charged ions or neutral molecules. These molecules or ions are re-bonded to the metal atom or ion by a coordinate bond.
Coordination entity:
A coordination entity composes of a central metal atom or ion bonded to a fixed number of ions or molecules.
Ligands:
A molecule, ion, or group which is bonded to the metal atom or ion in a complex or coordination compound by a coordinate bond is commonly called a ligand. It may be either neutral, positively, or negatively charged.
