(i) cis- \(\left[\mathrm{COCl}(\mathrm{en})_2\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)\right]^{2+}\)
(ii) cis- \(\left[\mathrm{CrCl}_2(\mathrm{ox})_2\right]^{3-}\)
(iii) cis- \(\left[\mathrm{CO}(\mathrm{en})_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right] \mathrm{Cl}\)
(iv) cis \(\left\{\mathrm{CO}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_4 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right]^{+}\)
- A (i), (ii), (iii)
- B (i), (ii)
- C (i), (iv)
- D (i), (ii), (iv)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) (i), (ii), (iii)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Octahedral complex having general formula \(\left[M(A A)_2 a_2\right]^{n \pm}\) or \(\left[M(A A)_2 a b\right]^{n \pm}\), shows optical isomersim. cis- \(\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_3\right)_4 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right]^{+}\)does not show optical isomerism due to symmetry,…
