hey student..
here you need to try using the information given in the question and to correlate that to the options given
for example, it says the complex does not show geometrical isomerism, so try arranging the ligands in such a way that there should be no optical activity in the molecule, also a similar conclusion can be quoted from the electrical properties whether the compound is diamagnetic or paramagnetic
