Question

The correct statement on the isomerism associated with the following complex ions. (a) ([N i (H2 O)5 N H3])2 + (b) ([N i (H2 O)4 (N H3)2])2 + and (c) ([N i (H2 O)3 (N H3)3])2 + is: (A) (a) and (b) show only geometrical isomerism (B) (a) and (b) show geometrical and optical isomerism (C) (b) and (c) show geometrical and optical isomerism (D) (b) and (c) show only geometrical isomerism

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

([N i (H2 O)5 N H3])2 + does not show any isomerism ([N i (H2 O)4 (N H3)2])2 + shows cis-trans (geometrical) isomerism ([N i (H2 O)3 (N H3)3])2 + shows fac-mer isomerism

Q. The correct statement on the isomerism associated with the following complex ions.
(a) $([N i (H_{2} O)_{5} N H_{3}])^{2 +}$
(b) $([N i (H_{2} O)_{4} (N H_{3})_{2}])^{2 +}$ and
(c) $([N i (H_{2} O)_{3} (N H_{3})_{3}])^{2 +}$ is:

(a) and (b) show only geometrical isomerism

(a) and (b) show geometrical and optical isomerism

(b) and (c) show geometrical and optical isomerism

(b) and (c) show only geometrical isomerism

$([N i (H_{2} O)_{5} N H_{3}])^{2 +}$ does not show any isomerism

$([N i (H_{2} O)_{4} (N H_{3})_{2}])^{2 +}$ shows cis-trans (geometrical) isomerism
$([N i (H_{2} O)_{3} (N H_{3})_{3}])^{2 +}$ shows fac-mer isomerism
