The complex that can show optical activity is :
Options
- Atrans - Cr Cl 2 ( Ox ) 2 3 -
- Btrans − Fe NH 3 2 CN 4 −
- Ccis - Fe NH 3 2 ( CN ) 4 -
- Dcis − CrCl 2 ox 2 3 − ox = oxalate
Correct answer
D. cis − CrCl 2 ox 2 3 − ox = oxalate
Step-by-step solution
Only cis - CrCl 2 OX 2 3 - show optical isomerism while its trans form do not show optical isomerism due to presence of plane of symmetry.
