In [NiCl4]2- the oxidation number of Ni is +2.
Electronic configuration of Ni (atomic no = 28)
Ni = [Ar] 3d84s2
Ni+2 = [Ar] 3d8
or [Ar]
It is evident that in [NiCl4]2- the number of unpaired electrons are two.

During the decomposition of H2O2 to give oxygen, 48 g O2 is formed per minute at a certain point of time. The rate of formation of water at this point is
0.75 mol min-1
1.5 mol min-1
2.25 mol min-1
3.0 mol min-1
