Which of the following is TRUE regarding Zn(NH3)4²+? O a. Zn(NH3)4²+ is colorless due to the filled 3d orbitals of Zn²+ O b. Zn(NH3)42+ is colorless due to the high field splitting energy of the tetrahedral compound. O c. Replacing ammonia in Zn(NH3)4²+ with ethylenediamine changes the transmitted color of the solution closer to red. O d. Both A and C
