What is the type of isomerism shown by the complex CoCl 2 en 2 ?

Options

  1. AIonization isomerism
  2. BCoordination isomerism
  3. CGeometrical isomerism
  4. DLinkage isomerism

Correct answer

C. Geometrical isomerism

Step-by-step solution

It shows geometrical isomerism. Isomerism is the phenomenon in which more than one compounds have the same chemical formula but different chemical structures. Chemical compounds that have identical chemical formulae but differ in properties and the arrangement of atoms in the molecule are called isomers.
