Square Matrix:
If the rows and columns of the matrices are equal then it will constitute square like structure. So, it is called as square matrix.
E.g.
Diagonal Matrix:
In a square matrix all the elements are zero except the diagonal elements of the matrix. Then that matrix is said to be diagonal matrix.
E.g.

In a diagonal matrix, if all the diagonal elements are same then that matrix is said to be a scalar matrix.
E.g.
Option(A):
A scalar matrix should be a square matrix so, it is true
Option(B):
Diagonal matrix forms only with the square matrix so, it is true
Option(C):
A scalar matrix consists of zero except the diagonal elements so it is true.
Option(D):
A scalar matrix should comprise of same diagonal elements but in diagonal matrix it may (or) may not contains same diagonal elements. So it is False.
Option(D) is not True in the given.
