$[CoCl_2(en)_2]^+$

Vedclass · Answer

(A) The complex $[CoCl_2(en)_2]^+$ has the general formula $[M(AA)_2a_2]$.Geometrical isomerism: It exists in $cis$ and $trans$ forms.The $cis$-isomer is optically active because it lacks a plane of symmetry.The $trans$-isomer is optically inactive due to the presence of a plane of symmetry.Therefore,the $cis$-isomer exhibits both geometrical and optical isomerism.

Which of the following complexes can exhibit both geometrical and optical isomerism?
