KCET2024ChemistryCoordination Compounds
The complex compounds [ Co ( NH ₃ )₅ SO ₄ ] Br and [ Co ( NH ₃ )₅ Br ] SO ₄ are
Options
- Acoordination isomers
- Bgeometrical isomers
- Coptical isomers
- Dionisation isomers
Correct answer
D. ionisation isomers
Step-by-step solution
The complex [ Co ( NH ₃ )₅ SO ₄ ] Br and [ Co ( NH ₃ )₅ Br ] SO ₄ are ionisation isomers of each other. - This form of isomerism arises when the counter ion in a complex salt is itself a potential ligands and can displace a ligand which can then become the counter ion.
