MCQ
Which of the following coordination compounds would exhibit optical isomerism?
  • A
    pentamminenitrocobalt $(III)$ iodide
  • B
    diamminedichloroplatinum $(II)$
  • C
    trans-dicyanobis (ethylenediamine) chromium $(III)$ chloride
  • tris-(ethylendiamine) cobalt $(III)$ bromide

Answer

Correct option: D.
tris-(ethylendiamine) cobalt $(III)$ bromide
d
The optical isomers are pair of molecules which are non superimposable mirror images of each other.

The two optically active isomers are collectivity called enantiomers.
