The isomer(s) of C o N H 3 4 C l 2 ] that has/ have a C l - C o - C l angle of 90 o , is/are:
Options
- Ameridional and trans
- Bc i s and trans
- Ctrans only
- Dc i s only
Correct answer
D. c i s only
Step-by-step solution
The isomer(s) of C o N H 3 4 C l 2 ] that has/ have a C l - C o - C l angle of 90 o , is the cis-isomer only. The structure of the cis isomers is written below: Here, as we can see that one 90 o angle of Cl - Co - Cl bond is present.
