Q. Facial and meridional isomerism will be exhibited by

KEAMKEAM 2009Coordination Compounds

Solution:

Facial (fac) and meridional (mer) isomerism, a type of geometrical isomerism, is shown by octahedral complexes having $Ma_3b_3$ general formula. Where, Mis cenral metal and a and b are monodentate ligand. Hence, $[Co(NH_3 )_3 Cl_3]$ exhibits fac-mer isomerism as
