Question

Number of stereoisomers possible for the octahedral complexes [ Co ( NH 3)3 Cl 3] and [ Ni ( en )2 Cl 2], respectively, are: [ [en =1,2-ethylenediamine] (A) 2 and 4 (B) 4 and 3 (C) 3 and 2 (D) 2 and 3

[ Co ( NH 3)3 Cl 3]

GI = 2 Total steroisomer = 2

G.I. =2 Optical isomer =3 stereo isomer =3

Q. Number of stereoisomers possible for the octahedral complexes $[C o (N H_{3})_{3} C l_{3}]$ and $[N i (e n)_{2} C l_{2}]$ , respectively, are: $[$ [en $= 1, 2$ -ethylenediamine]

2 and 4

4 and 3

3 and 2

2 and 3

$[C o (N H_{3})_{3} C l_{3}]$

$G I = 2$
Total steroisomer $= 2$

G.I. $= 2$
Optical isomer $= 3$
stereo isomer $= 3$
