Geometrical and optical isomerism exihibted by
- ✓$[Co(en)_2Cl_2]^+$
- B$[Co(NH_3)_5Cl]^{2+}$
- C$[Co(NH_3)_4Cl_2]^+$
- D$[Cr(OX)_3]^{3-}$
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
$[Co(en)_2Cl_2]^+$
a
Both optical and geometrical isomers are shown by $\left[ Co (\text {en})_2 Cl _2\right]^{+}$.Geometrical isomers include cis and trans isomers. Trans isomer is optically inactive meso form. Cis isomer is optically active and exists in the form of a pair of enantiomers ($d$ and $l$ form).
