Vedclass · Answer

(D) Optical isomerism is shown by complexes that do not have a plane of symmetry or a center of inversion.$1$. $[Co(en)_2Cl_2]^+$: The cis-isomer of this complex lacks a plane of symmetry and is optically active. The trans-isomer is optically inactive.$2$. $[Co(gly)_3]$: This complex exists in facial $(fac)$ and meridional $(mer)$ forms. The $fac-[Co(gly)_3]$ isomer is optically active because it lacks a plane of symmetry.$3$. $[Co(gly)Cl_4]^{2-}$: This complex is highly symmetric and does not exhibit optical isomerism.Therefore,both $A$ and $B$ show optical isomerism.
