Consider the following statements:
(a) Crystal field theory (CFT) considers the metal-ligand bond to be covalent, arising purely from overlapping between the metal ion and the ligand.
(b) Octacarbonyldicobalt (0) has a Co-Co bond. 
(c) Ruby is an aluminium oxide (Al2O3) containing about 0.5–1% Zn2+ ions.

The correct statement(s) is/are: 

1. "a" and "b" only
2. "b" and "c" only
3. "c" only
4. "b" only
