The complexes [Co(NH3)6] [Cr(CN)6] and [Cr(NH3)6] [Co(CN)6] are the examples of which type of isomerism?
- ALinkage isomerism
- BIonization isomerism
- CCoordination isomerism
- DGeometrical isomerism
View written solutionFree
Correct answer: C
Coordination isomerism arises from the interchange of ligands between cationic and anionic entities of different metal ions present in the complex.
[Co (NH3)6] [Cr(CN)6] is an isomer of [Co(CN)6] [Cr(NH3)6]
